1. A method comprising:
receiving a live video sequence comprising two or more image frames depicting a live mammalian cell;
defining, in real-time, within said cell, at least one longitudinal line along a length dimension of said cell, and at least one transverse line along a width dimension of said cell;
calculating, in real-time, with respect to each image frame in said video sequence, a fast Fourier transform (FFT) with respect to each of said at least one longitudinal and transverse lines;
detecting peaks in each of said calculated FFTs; and
determining, for every image frame in the video sequence, in real-time, with respect to said cell, one or more temporal changes in at least one of sarcomere length, mitochondrial length, and mitochondrial width, based, at least in part, on said detected peaks, thereby detecting mitochondrial contraction-relaxation cycles in said live mammalian cell.
