^aTimes are approximate.
CNF functions were performed on different sections than other functions.
CNF: Centrally nucleated fibers function; FF: Fiber filter function; FP: Fiber properties function, including fiber size; FT: Fiber typing function; IS: Initial segmentation function; TOT: Total time for analysis.
