Research EditionWhole-slide scanners, confocal and light sheet microscopes have the ability to create vast image sets that can be challenging to view and manage. They are often comprised of very large files, potentially reaching hundreds of gigabytes in size. These images, generated from a variety of microscopes and slide scanners that produce different file formats, cause compatibility issues in viewing, collaboration, and analysis. Biolucida solves these challenges. |
