The Muscle Fiber FL module detects fluorescently-stained muscle fibers and reports the total count as well as the perimeter, area, and diameter of each fiber. The module also detects nuclei (and nuclear position with respect to the fiber) and reports fiber membrane dye intensity and co-localization (where applicable).
