Conspecta
Conspecta is a browser-based research platform that brings microscopy image analysis, flow cytometry, molecular biology, sample tracking, and publication-ready figures into one connected workspace. It replaces the patchwork of disconnected tools most labs assemble, so a lab's data, samples, and results stay linked from experiment to figure with full traceability. Built for imaging-heavy and flow-heavy biology labs, new PIs, and early-stage biotech. Research-focused, not regulated or clinical. Free for individuals. Paid team plans add shared workspaces.

Vesalius3D
Vesalius3D is a software application for high-quality 3D visualization and navigation through personalized, patient-specific anatomical structures. It allows users to instantly visualize patient-specific anatomy, revealing details and structures that might be missed using only standard 2D slices. Users can navigate inside the patient to get to their point of view quickly. The software is easy to use yet filled with functionality, utilizing existing standard medical images such as CT, MR, and Ultrasound without the need for special scans. It contains presets for the most commonly used tissues. Vesalius3D offers predefined visualizations, allowing users to bypass manual settings and immediately view results using starting visualizations tailored for most used tissues. The software provides various tools for measurement, including 2D quantification tools like distances, angles, and contour areas, as well as 3D quantification tools such as distances, contours, angles, etc.

3D-DOCTOR
3D-DOCTOR is an advanced 3D modeling, image processing, and measurement software for MRI, CT, PET, microscopy, scientific, and industrial imaging applications. It supports both grayscale and color images stored in DICOM, TIFF, Interfile, GIF, JPEG, PNG, BMP, PGM, MRC, RAW, or other image file formats. 3D-DOCTOR creates 3D surface models and volume rendering from 2D cross-section images in real-time on your PC. You can export the polygonal mesh models to STL, DXF, IGES, 3DS, OBJ, VRML, PLY, XYZ, and other formats for surgical planning, simulation, quantitative analysis, finite element analysis, and rapid prototyping applications. You can calculate 3D volume and make other 3D measurements for quantitative analysis. 3D-DOCTOR's vector-based tools support easy image data handling, measurement, and analysis. 3D CT/MRI images can be re-sliced easily along an arbitrary axis. Multi-modality images can be registered to create image fusions.
