The invention comprises a software tool, NeuronMetrics, which functions as a set of modules that run in the open-source program ImageJ. NeuronMetrics features a novel method for estimating neural “branch number” (a measure of the axonal complexity) from two-dimensional images. In addition, the tool features a novel method for modeling neural structure in large “gaps” that result from image artifacts.

QuantCenter is the framework for 3DHISTECH image analysis applications. with the goal of helping the pathologists to diagnose in an easier way. QuantCenter, is optimized for whole slide quantification. It has a linkable algorithm concept that tries to provide an easy-to-use and logical workflow. The user has different quantification modules that he or she could link one after other to fine-tune or to speed up the analysis.

Neurolucida is a powerful tool for creating and analyzing realistic, meaningful, and quantifiable neuron reconstructions from microscope images. Perform detailed morphometric analysis of neurons, such as quantifying 1) the number of dendrites, axons, nodes, synapses, and spines, 2) the length, width, and volume of dendrites and axons, 3) the area and volume of the soma, and 4) the complexity and extension of neurons.

TurtleSeg is an interactive 3D image segmentation tool. TurtleSeg has an automated system, Spotlight, for automatically directing the user towards the next steps. Typically, a user loads a 3D image and then manually contour a sparse number of slices, the full 3D segmentation can then be built automatically.

WaveTracer is a plugin for Metamorph. It represents a functional method for real-time reconstruction with automatic feedback control, without compromising the localization accuracy. It relies on a wavelet segmentation algorithm, together with a mix of CPU/GPU implementation.
