MetaMorph NX Microscopy Automation & Image Analysis Software
- Design distributable and reusable image processing and analysis modules in an integrated but separately dedicated workspace
- Reduce iteration cycles by creating, adjusting and viewing results of designed analysis at the same time
- Easily combine built-in processing filters and define segmentation and measurements
- Consistent workflow-oriented interface guides you through even the most complicated acquisition and analysis tasks.
- Interactive zoom and pan within an entire image dataset. Easily focus in on the most important results.
- Acquired datasets are easily analyzed; tabular and graphical extracted information remains linked to image source.
- Supports the broadest range of microscopy components to enable your unique application
- Continuous driver development targets state-of-the-art peripheral hardware and camera drivers to keep you ahead of the curve
- In-house driver and component testing gives you confidence that your system will work every time
- Spin, rock, rotate and zoom in on 3D display of the dataset from all angles
- Move through time points using the filmstrip and export the sequence as a movie easily
Multi-Threaded Application
- Acquisition and analysis can now be accomplished simultaneously
- Asynchronous control of peripheral hardware shortens time-lapse intervals to improve temporal resolution
- Device streaming captures images at the maximum hardware rate for high-speed device synchronization during acquisition
Support for Targeted Illumination Devices
- Applications such as FRAP, FRET, photoactivation, photobleaching and uncaging of caged compounds are enabled
Experiment History
- Experiment aware, all images, measurements and acquisition parameters stay together throughout experiment cycle
Windows 7 operating system is required. MetaMorph NX Software runs under 32- and 64-bit operating systems. Please note, not all hardware drivers are compatible with 64-bit systems.
The suite of MetaMorph NX Software Application Modules enables both novice and expert users to set up hundreds of assays in minutes without compromising the scientific rigor required to address complex applications.
4D Viewer Module
Explore your dataset in 3D by displaying just some or all channels, adjusting the transparency, color, and level of detail of each channel, and showing the volume or isosurface of channels. Spin, rock, rotate, and zoom in on the 3D display to investigate your data from all angles. Interactively slice through planes to peer into the various structures and layers of your images. Easily move through time points using the filmstrip and view the sequence as a movie.
Fiber Tracing Application Module
The patent-pending Fiber Tracing Application Module differentiates fibers that cross over each other from fibers that branch from one another and makes sense of the entangled webs inherent to most fiber structures. Measurements include fiber length, width, straightness, angle, and intensity, as well as identification of the “children” fibers that stem from “parent” fibers.
from the study of elongated organisms such as C. elegans
and bacteria, to cytoskeleton investigations and angiogenesis analyses.
Neurite Tracing Application Module
Neurite Tracing Application Module quickly segments and measures overlapping neurons and their outgrowths in an image acquired with one wavelength. In addition, the module can be used to identify spines, perform a Sholl Analysis to obtain precise data about neuron outgrowth patterns, and identify nuclei in images acquired with a nuclear stain. Color-coded segmentation overlays clearly delineat
