Reconstruction and Visualization from Multiple Sections (ReViMS), an open-source, user-friendly software for automatically estimating volume and several other features of 3D multicellular aggregates (i.e., cancer spheroid, zebrafish, fruit fly). ReViMS requires a z-stack of 2D binary masks, obtained by segmenting a sequence of fluorescent images acquired by scanning the aggregate along the z axis, using a confocal or a light-sheet fluorescent microscope.

F-Tracker3D is acronym of "fluorescent cell tracker in three-dimensions". It is a software tool designed to track fluorescent cells using time-lapse z-stacks of images acquired with a confocal or light-sheet microscope. First, each single cell is tracked in 2D by using the maximum intensity projections of the z-stacks and CellTracker, the free open source software available at: www.celltracker.website. Then, the 3D track of each cell is obtained analysing the z-stacks and looking for the z-plane with the maximum intensity value for the different x-y positions previously determined. ...

...Unfortunately, to build a mosaic of a hemocytometer's grid shows some problem due to the repeated patterns (i.e., the squared blocks of the grid). GridMos is an open-source software tool conceived to build an image mosaic of a hemocytometer's grid. It is optimized to build the mosaic starting from a sequence of overlapping images previously acquired. The Graphical User Interface (GUI) implemented makes GridMos a very user-friendly software tool. Requirements: MATLAB 2009b (32-bit) and Image Processing Toolbox 8.1 or later versions.

...Those images can be saved as multidimensional matrices in Matlab thanks to Matlab's powerful support of multidimensional data representation. However, within Matlab, most of image manipulation functions are limited or tailored for processing two-dimensional matrix. The MatrixUser is a software package which features functions designed and optimized specifically for manipulating multidimensional real or complex data matrix. MatrixUser provides a nice graphical environment for easily performing image analysis tasks including multidimensional image display, matrix (image stack) processing and rendering etc. MatrixUser is a great lightweight tool for users who are working in image processing field under Matlab.
