Free Image & Image Acquisition Software
|
VayTek's deconvolution and 3D programs are enabling technologies with numerous potential applications. VayTek's software is an asset to researchers in scientific, industrial, medical, geoscience, surveillance and enviromental laboratories. They are now offering Free image processing and data acquisition software.
VayTek Image is an image processing and data acquisition software. It allows scientists to capture images in real time from their microscope and process the images to bring out the relevant features. This free download of VayTek Image provides software that can only use existing images to perform its functions.
 VoxBlast is a fully featured 3-D digital imaging application for science, engineering and medicine. It offers 3-D Measurement, 3-D Volume Visualization, and 3-D Rendering. It was designed as a general purpose rendering application for research. It accepts stacks of registered 2-D images and creates 3-D projections from any viewpoint using an alpha blending or surface rendering algorithm.
VayTek supports and resells data acquisition and image analysis software that is compatible with MicroTome, VoxBlast, VolumeScan, other image processing applications, and with most microscopy hardware. VayTek supplies Image-Pro, IP Lab Spectrum and other stand-alone data acquisition/image analysis packages.

Cameras and Reviews
|
 Data acquisition is critical to digital deconvolution in microscopy systems. Deconvolution algorithms can give accurate results if the original image has good dynamic range, a good signal/noise ratio and a minimum of background noise. Noisy or poor images cannot be deconvolved properly.
To capture a good original image requires a camera or data acquisition system that is appropriate to the specimens under observation. This means cameras can vary in price and sophistication. Low light level fluorescence applications will require high quality, cooled CCD cameras. On the other hand, bright field applications can often use less expensive, room temperature CCD cameras.
Choosing a camera can be difficult. As a service to our customers, VayTek has gathered the information purchasers need to make an informed choice. We have created a Camera Comparison Database for your convenience.

Application Notes
|
Mature white fat cell expressing EGFP among non-expressing adipocytes within intact adipose tissue.
|
EGFP cDNA was introduced into fat cells of adipose tissue by electrotransfer. Tissue was fixed, and placed intact into a Leiden chamber and visualized using an Olympus IX81 with a mercury lamp and a 20x lens. VayTek's software VolumeScan was used for image acquistion and MicroTome for deconvolution.
"The goals of our research are to study the cellular organization of adipose tissue and tissue
remodeling/plasticity that is induced by anti-diabetes drugs. We are developing fluoresence imaging techniques that will allow analysis of structure-function relationships of fat cells within intact tissue. "
