After detecting and segmenting the image data as objects using one of the 4 models, Imaris calculates a wide range of statistics. All values can be used for, filtering, labelling, color coding, plotted inside Imaris (using Vantage plots) or exported in a preformatted .csv or .xls file. Machine Learning Object Classification tool uses many of these values in addition to many more machine learning specific ones. Although the parameters presented below are the most common statistic types needed by biologists, Imaris reports many more.
As a Core Facility Manager you may need greater flexibility than when a license is locked to one unique workstation so we have developed a Floating License Manager giving you the power to float the license to many different workstations within your lab, or department via your institution’s LAN. Expanded ranges beyond a department are available as well on request.
The Floating License Manager is also required when wishing to use Imaris on a workstation with app virtualization tools or where the workstation is running a server operating system. Purchasing one Imaris package license allows the use of Imaris on one workstation at a time. Additional licenses can be purchased if you are in a situation where multiple concurrent users are needed.
Deconvolution is often a first and important step in image analysis when users need to sharpen their images. Imaris overcomes common workflow problems where users need to open their files in various software packages, convert images and save multiple copies, by integrating deconvolution functionality into the Imaris menu. The main advantages of Imaris ClearView™ deconvolution are:
Stitching of individually acquired image tiles is an essential task for those who want to analyse big samples at high resolution. Imaris for Core Facilities includes Imaris Stitcher as most of Light-Sheet users and some Confocal Microscopy users aim to acquire these large images. Imaris Stitcher caters to these needs with an easy-to-use and performant interface. By including stitching functionality within the Imaris platform we’ve eliminated the time- and storage-consuming need for converting files from one format to another as users move between softwares.
