| Abstract | Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) implies cilia with dysmotility or total absence of motility, which may result in sinusitis, chronicbronchitis, bronchiectasis and male infertility. A large number of deficiencies detectable on the ultrastructural level give rise to PCD, but patients with normal cilia ultrastructure are common. An early diagnosis is very important since PCD can cause permanent lung damage. Diagnosis can be difficult and is based on an abnormal ciliary beat frequency (CBF) and beat pattern, accompanied by specific abnormalities of the ciliary axoneme or normal ultrastructural cilia. In this paper, we present a method to determine CBF through the analysis of phase-contrast microscopy imaging acquired using digital high speed video techniques. Beat frequency measurements are made estimating cilia motion by means of an optical flow algorithm. A previous coregistration process is performed to eliminate cell movements due to cilia motion. The algorithm is tested on several isolated ciliar cells, concluding that this method is a robust technique to determine CBF. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
