Calcium imaging has become a popular way to probe astrocyte activity, but few techniques holistically capture discrete calcium signals occurring across the astrocyte domain. Here, we introduce STARDUST, a pipeline for the spatio-temporal analysis of regional dynamics and unbiased sorting of transients from fluorescence recordings of astrocytes. We describe steps for installing software, detecting active pixel patches, obtaining region of activity (ROA) maps, and extracting time series from ROAs. We then detail procedures for extracting signal features using custom-made code.
