Vesselucida Explorer

Vesselucida Explorer is designed as an analytical companion for Vesselucida 360, offering extensive morphometric analysis capabilities for microvascular models and serial section reconstructions. Researchers can visualize and analyze vessels, puncta, and regions within an intuitive 3D environment, allowing for comprehensive quantitative measurements and the generation of publication-ready figures.

This software enables in-depth exploration of vascular networks, providing sophisticated visualizations and reports. Users can generate and export quantitative data efficiently through a series of graphical 3D displays and batch processing tools, which enhances workflow productivity.

For understanding the vascular composition of cerebral architecture or visceral organs, Vesselucida Explorer offers quantification of vascular morphology, drawing data from Vesselucida 360 or Vesselucida. It includes customizable neuronal and regional analyses to fit specific research questions. With its pre-programmed complex morphological analyses, researchers can engage in rapid, high-volume data analysis without requiring programming skills.

Key Features:

• Quantify Vessel Network Morphology: Offers reports on individual and total networks, node specifications, and vessel details.
• Analyze Vascular Loops: Detects and analyzes anastomoses with user-defined criteria in a 3D space.
• Segment Analysis: Provides detailed measurements of vessel segments, including path length, average diameter, and tortuosity.
• Density and Distribution Visualization: Offers Closed Surface Analysis and Convex Hull methods to assess vascular networks.
• Puncta Analysis: Includes morphometric studies, respecting detection channels and comparing puncta populations.
• Batch Analysis: Allows loading of multiple datasets for integrated, repetitive analysis without scripting.

Vesselucida Explorer supports Windows 11 (64-bit) and uses file formats like XML, ASC, DAT from Vesselucida 360 or Vesselucida for input. Outputs include files in XML, SVG, TIFF, JPEG, PNG, and TXT formats. The XML format adheres to the Neuromorphological File Specification endorsed by the INCF.
