All of the segmentation and morphometric analysis was done with the open-source platform QuPath. The scripts I wrote are on Github and the raw images are on the BioImage Archive, because open-source is the way to go! But seriously, look at these cells! They are so angry.

Reactive microglia looking particularly angry. Iba1 showing cell shape in magenta, large amounts of CD68 in green, nuclei in blue. The cells are outlined in brown and the nuclei are outlined in cyan. There are lines connecting the nuclear centroids from Delaunay triangulation.
