The analysis of 11 image processing algorithms for microobjects recognition in the histological sections of the biotissue is carried out. It is shown that for images obtained with different microscopes and dyes, there is no one universal method of image processing. The choice of the algorithm depends to a large extent on the specific type of microscope. Considered algorithms give more reliable results for high-contrast images when using a confocal microscope.
