I have seen in several places this formula for CTCF: CTCF = Integrated Density – (Area of selected cell X Mean fluorescence of background readings). Is it standard practice to "correct" the mean gray value output from ImageJ to CTCF? What are the benefits of doing so? I am trying to determine if there is a difference in mean fluorescence based on five pictures each before and after a treatment. In your opinion, would it be better to use just the mean gray values or CTCF?
