Vesselucida^®360 Version History

New Features and Enhancements:

• Images and data files load noticeably faster than in previous releases.
• Vesselucida 360 software handles hundreds of thousands of data points simultaneously; you’ll notice that it is more responsive than previous versions.
• Image adjustments are immediately displayed in both the 2D and 3D windows—without clicking any buttons.
• Multiple options are available to indicate how you want Vesselucida 360 software to handle and display your images.
• Drag and drop file opening is easier and more powerful with the new Image Opener window.
  • Open all images in supported container files such as Leica .lif and Zeiss .czi formats.
  • Choose to display in a grid, stack images, or display on top of each other without stacking.
• Puncta detection in the 3D environment. The new tool includes the option to use powerful new machine learning technology for accurate puncta detection.
• Color channel selection in the 3D Environment via a new Channel panel enables you to select one or more color channels to view, hide, and associate with data elements in your images.
• You can now associate traced structures with a specific color channel—With multicolor images, select a single color channel for display in either the Channel panel (3D), or the Image Adjustment panel (2D), to assign any structures traced while the selection is active to that specific color channel.
• New subvolume function in the 3D environment enables you to easily and systematically focus on portions of images/image stacks. This replaces the large volume reconstruction feature present in previous releases.
