The fractal dimension of a surface is a useful measure of the roughness of the surface. A method of estimating fractal dimension using mathematical morphology is derived and is applied to cell image analysis. By utilizing the fractal dimension property, the cells can be automatically classified as labeled or unlabeled cells.
