This workflow detects spots in a 2D image by filtering the image by Laplacian of Gaussian (user defined radius), thresholding (user defined threshold) and finding local intensity maxima in mask distance map (Dmap).

TGMM is a cell tracking solution for large 3D volume (typically lightsheet).

It detects cell nuclei by fitting gaussians on their fluorescent intensity.

It can run on GPU using CUDA and is called via the command line.

PSFj is a software tool that automatically analyses the full field-of-view (FOV) performance of a given fluorescence microscope/objective lens combination with respect to its optical resolution and chromatic aberrations. PSFj provides reporting functions to document the momentary performance of a system and it allows for the export of the obtained data, e.g. for image restoration purposes. PSFj is based on ImageJ and JAVA, and runs on Windows, Mac, and Linux PCs as a stand-alone application.

Starting from image stacks, the nuclear boundary as well as nuclear bodies are segmented. As output, NucleusJ automatically measures 15 parameters quantifying shape and size of nuclei as well as intra-nuclear objects and the positioning of the objects within the nuclear volume.

QuickFit 3 is a data evaluation software for FCS Fluorescence Correlation Spectroscopy and imagingFCS (imFCS) measurements, developed in the group B040 (Prof. Jörg Langowski) at the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ). Actually QuickFit 3 itself is a project manager and all functionality is added as plugins. A set of tested plugins for FCS, imagingFCS and some microscopy-related image processing tasks is supplied together with the software.
