Processing Features
A rich palette of image analysis and visualization tools allow the user to
extract more complex information from 2D or 3D images. Besides basic
functionality like magnification, ROI analysis and geometrical measurements,
the following features have proven highly invaluable:
- 2D and 3D region growing, e.g. for image segmentation
- Export of histogram values
- Display and analysis of time-course´data with the fitting tool “ISA”
- Frame-selective loading of image sequences for display, e.g. either timecourse frames or slices for a multi-slice movie dataset
- 3D visualization with surface rendering Image mask inversion
