`FiberImageCrop.npy` contains the original input fiber image resized to the size of the output analysis maps. These files have (depending on the argument `edge`) less pixels because the image edges should be excluded to avoid orientation analysis artifacts (default: 15px). `OrientationMap.npy` includes the orientation to the cell center (between -1 and 1) as explained above. `CoherencyMap.npy` can be used as a measure of anisotropy or orientation strength within the image (between 0 and 1), regardless of the specific direction of the orientation. This can be advantageous when the direction varies, such as in images containing multiple cells with stained stress fibers oriented in different directions. Quantifying the average coherence of these stress fibers in the cell occupied area can still provide insight into the strength of these fibers.

This option will start the analysis without the second image pair of cell images and automatically compute all maps within the entire image using the `ignore_cell_outline=True` argument. The typical orientation map is calculated with respect to the image center.
