Introduction
Overview of Segmentation
Techniques
Region boundaries and edges are closely related, since there is often a
sharp adjustment in intensity at the region boundaries. Edge detection
techniques have therefore been used as the base of segmentation
technique.[2]

Implementation
The binary gradient mask shows lines of high contrast in the image.
These linear gaps will disappear if the Sobel image is dilated using linear
structuring elements .[4]
The dilated gradient mask shows the outline of the cell quite nicely,
but there are still holes in the interior of the cell. [4]
