Quantify Neuronal Morphology

Neurolucida systems can be configured
to meet your specific research needs

Perform detailed morphometric analysis of neurons, such as quantifying branching structures, dendritic spine distribution, creating detailed anatomical models. Neurolucida is the standard neuron reconstruction tool in neuroscience laboratories worldwide.

Perform sophisticated neuron reconstructions on single or multiple cells. Combine high-magnification neuron tracing with low-magnification cytoarchitectural mapping. Trace neurons in single or multiple serial sections. Map dendritic spines, axonal boutons, terminals, and relevant anatomical features.

Obtain detailed neuroanatomical analyses including dendrograms, Sholl analyses, fan-in diagrams, polar histograms, and quantify hundreds of morphometric parameters such as dendritic length, spine density, and branching angles.

Work directly with a computer-controlled microscope using a fully integrated Neurolucida system, or with Neurolucida Workstation software to work with image stacks from confocal microscopes with the Confocal module.

Now perform automated neuron tracing with our AutoNeuron plug-in for Neurolucida. AutoNeuron is the product of more than 10 years of research and development. It is the state-of-the-art in automatic neuron tracing software.
