retina

The module provides biological visual systems models (human visual system and others). It also provides derivated objects that take advantage of those bio-inspired models.

It is a tool to visualize and annotate volume image data of electron microscopy. Users can annotate objects (e.g. neurons) and skeleton structures. It provides the ability to overlaying the image data with user annotations, representing the spatial structure and the connectivity of labeled objects, and displaying a three dimensional model of it. It can be extended by plugins written in python. A similar, web-based implementation is being developed at webknossos.info. Example datasets are also available.

ImageJ plugin to analyze changes in vessel diameters, described in Fernández er al (2014). More specifically the paper describes the measurement of isolated retinal arterioles (ca 50 micrometer diameter) but can be used for diameter measurements of similar vessel structures.
