View and analyze most microscopy image files in their native formats
Our philosophy is to work on microscopy data that was recorded and archived
in its native format. Image Analyst MKII provides manual or pipeline-based
processing for visualization and analysis of these recordings.
The "internal reader" is speed optimized and accurately reads time stamps from *.nd, *.nd2, *.lsm, *.inf and *.tif files.
The internal TIF folder reader allows a pattern-based reconstruction of larger
multi-dimensional image data sets. Image Analyst MKII also imports and exports
common video formats. The Bio-formats reader provides a broad microscopy format compatibility.
