This is the development version of frenchFISH; for the stable release version, see frenchFISH.

Poisson Models for Quantifying DNA Copy-number from FISH Images of Tissue Sections


Bioconductor version: Development (3.24)

FrenchFISH comprises a nuclear volume correction method coupled with two types of Poisson models: either a Poisson model for improved manual spot counting without the need for control probes; or a homogenous Poisson Point Process model for automated spot counting.
