THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 23, 2022. A collection of software modules for image data handling, pre-processing, segmentation, inspection, editing, post-processing, and secondary analysis. These modules can be scripted to accomplish a variety of automated image analysis tasks. All of the modules are written in accordance with software practices of the Insight Toolkit Community. Importantly, all modules are accessible through the Python scripting language which allows users to create scripts to accomplish sophisticated associative image analysis tasks over multi-dimensional microscopy image data. This language works on most computing platforms, providing a high degree of platform independence. Another important design principle is the use of standardized XML file formats for data interchange between modules.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 23,2022. The Duke Image Analysis Laboratory (DIAL) is committed to providing comprehensive imaging support in research studies and clinical trials to various agencies. The capabilities of the lab include protocol development, site training and certification, and image archival and analysis for a variety of modalities including magnetic resonance imaging, magnetic resonance spectroscopy, computed tomography and nuclear medicine. DIAL uses the latest technologies to analyze Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) data sets of the brain. Currently the lab is engaged in measurement of the hippocampus, amygdala, caudate, ventricular system, and other brain regional volumes. Each of these techniques have undergone a rigorous validation process. The measurements of brain structures provide a useful means of non-invasively testing for changes in the brain of the patient. Changes over time in the brain can be detected, and evaluated with respect to the treatment that the patient is receiving. Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS) allows DIAL to obtain an accurate profile of the chemical content of the brain. This sensitive technique can detect small changes in the metabolic state of the brain; changes that vary in response to administration of therapeutic agents. The ability to detect these subtle shifts in brain chemistry allows DIAL to identify changes in the brain with more sensitivity than allowed by image analysis. In this respect, NMR spectroscopy can provide early detection of changes in the brain, and serves to compliment the data obtained from image analysis. Additionally, DIAL also contains SQUID (Scalable Query Utility and Image Database). It is an image management system developed to facilitate image management in research and clinical trials: SQUID offers secure, redundant image storage and organizational functions for sorting and searching digital images for a variety of modalities including MRI, MRS, CAT Scan, X-Ray and Nuclear Medicine. SQUID can access images directly from DUMC scanners. Data can also be loaded via DICOM CDs, THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.

A multi-platform visualization tool which allows import and visualization of 3-D atlas structures in combination with tomographic and histological image data. The tool allows visualization and analysis of the reconstructed atlas framework, surface modeling and rotation of selected structures, user-defined slicing at any chosen angle, and import of data produced by the user for merging with the atlas framework. Tomographic image data in NIfTI (Neuroimaging Informatics Technology Initiative) file format, VRML and PNG files can be imported and visualized within the atlas framework. XYZ coordinate lists are also supported. Atlases that are available with the tool include mouse brain structures (3-D reconstructed from The Mouse Brain in Stereotaxic Coordinates by Paxinos and Franklin (2001)) and rat brain structures (3-D reconstructed from The Rat Brain in Stereotaxic Coordinates by Paxinos and Watson (2005)). Experimental data can be imported in Atlas3D and warped to atlas space, using manual linear registration, with the possibility to scale, rotate, and position the imported data. This facilitates assignment of location and comparative analysis of signal location in tomographic images.

The In-Vivo Molecular Imaging Laboratory (IMIL) is a MSSM shared resource facility serving the research community of Mount Sinai with equipment and imaging expertise. State-of-the-art bioluminescent as well as fluorescent imaging modalities are supported for in-vivo monitoring of cellular and genetic activity. Investigators are provided with cutting edge imaging technologies as well as analysis techniques. The long-term goal is to establish a comprehensive SRF for in-vivo molecular imaging using micro-MRI, micro-PET and other modalities. IMIL houses a Xenogen IVIS-200 Series imaging system with the integrated fluorescent imaging options. Simultaneous dual reporter in-vivo imaging is possible with bioluminescence and fluorescence probes.

http://www.nesys.uio.no/Micro3D/

The Micro3D 2004 is a software for 3-D reconstruction, visualization, and analysis of neuronal populations and brain regions. Micro3D generates geometric models from line and point coded data sets, representing labeled objects such as cell bodies or axonal plexuses, and boundaries of brain regions in serial sections. Data are typically imported from image-combining computerized microscopy systems, such as Neurolucida (MicroBrightField, Colchester, VT). The models may be rotated and zoomed in real-time. Surfaces are re-synthesized on the basis of stacks of contour lines. Clipping is used for defining section-independent subdivisions of the model. Flattening of sheets of points in curved layers (e.g., neurons in a cortical lamina) facilitates inspection of complicated distribution patterns. Micro3D computes color-coded density maps, and allows production of mpeg videos. Micro3D 2004 runs on LINUX PCs equipped with Open Inventor. It performs operations similar to the Silicon Graphics based version that has been used in more than 25 investigations and in various species, ranging from insects to monkeys, at the LM- and EM-level. Sponsors:Micro 3D was developed with support from The Research Council of Norway and The Oslo Research Park / FORNY.
