Stereo Investigator® - Cleared Tissue Edition
Accurate, Unbiased Stereology for Cleared Tissue
Stereo Investigator – Cleared Tissue Edition is the gold standard in unbiased stereology for use on cleared tissue. It allows researchers to use the world’s most cited stereology software — MBF Bioscience’s Stereo Investigator — to analyze intact, cleared tissue specimens imaged with light sheet or confocal microscopes.

Systematic Random Sampling throughout the user defined region of interest, and marking just cell tops contained within the counting frames, ensures accurate unbiased results.
Stereo Investigator – Cleared Tissue Edition is a software tool specifically engineered for analyzing cleared tissue image data accurately and efficiently. It includes the Image Volume Fractionator, a new, state-of the-art stereological probe developed by MBF Bioscience to count cells in large, 3D images of intact specimens.
Features
- Quantifies:
• Numbers of cells
• Cell volume and surface area
• Length of branching structures
• Region volumes and surface areas
- Reads image files produced by most light sheet and confocal microscopes
- High-performance 3D visualization
- Intuitive workflows make it easy to learn and use
Specially Designed Stereology Probes for Analyzing Cleared Tissue
Design-based stereology is a set of data analysis methods that ensure integrity in the quantitative analysis of the size, shape, and number of objects in a tissue sample. Stereology produces results that are unbiased and more reliable than non-stereologic analyses.
Traditional unbiased stereology was created to accurately quantify tissue sections. We developed new, innovative technology, Stereo Investigator – Cleared Tissue Edition to solve the unique challenges inherent in working with large intact cleared tissue or thick slabs of cleared tissue specimens.
There are numerous stereological probes included in Stereo Investigator Cleared Tissue Edition for quantifying number, length, surface, volume, and area:

Researchers use Stereo Investigator Cleared Tissue Edition to perform analysis of:
- Cell populations
- Cell size, area, volume, surface
- Fiber or capillary lengths
- Area or volume for regions of interest
Stereo Investigator Cleared Tissue can analyze image data sets acquired from:
- ClearScope
- Vesalius resonant scanning confocal
- Zeiss
- Hamamatsu
- Leica
- Olympus
- and more...
