Hello,
Voronoi or Delaunay tessellations may be of help, there is a plugin by Johannes Schindelin available:

http://wbgn013.biozentrum.uni-wuerzburg.de/ImageJ/delaunay.html 

Matos et al. (2002) Cell Motility and the Cytoskeleton 53: 53-65 may be a very useful reference as well.

Hope that this is of some help.

Best regards,

Gareth Edwards.

>Hi,


we are imaging two fluorescent markers that are localized in
different cells but are present in the same tissue according to our
theory. The data consists of z-stacks of images through the tissue.
Is there a mathematical way to analyze and support the close
proximity in the same tissue?
I guess colocalization studies should not give any colocalization.
Can it be called "colocalization" in the same tissue or cooccurence
in the same tissue?
