Steps in data analysis: an overview
Data conversion (between different file and data formats)
- to prevent loss of dynamic range (12bit/16 bit data)
- to convert from 12bit/16bit to 8 bit (for reading data with standard programs)
- to convert for input into another program
Deconvolution (noise reduction, removal of blur and improvement of visible resolution)
Image correction
- image stack alignment
- crosstalk compensation
3D visualisation
- stereo views
- red / green anaglyph images (one channel)
- LCD images (one or more channels)
- stereo images (2 images side by side, one or more channels): Crystal eyes LCD stereo equipment is available at the two facility PCs
- interactive 3D visualisation (geometry rendering, isosurface, Crystal Eyes with LCD shutter)
- 3D voxel rendering
- shadow projection (from top)
- projection
- raytrace
- perspective projection
Further possible steps
- Colocalisation analysis
- Movie generation
- Documentation of images and image series
- Presentation
- RGB prints on paper
