This repository includes a StarDist deep learning model and its training and validation datasets for detecting fluorescently labeled cancer cells perfused over an endothelial cell monolayer. The model was trained on 66 images labeled with CellTrace and demonstrated high accuracy, achieving an average F1 Score of 0.877. The dataset and the trained model can be used for biomedical image analysis, particularly in cancer research.
