PerkinElmer launches high performance cellular imaging software

4 December 2008

PerkinElmer, Inc. has launched the Volocity 5 high performance cellular imaging software suite, developed by subsidiary Improvision.

The Volocity 5 software is a complete solution for 3D and 4D image acquisition from fluorescence microscopy systems, allowing data visualisation, deconvolution, publication, object measurement, tracking and charting.

Using Volocity, cell images can either be directly acquired or the data seamlessly imported from a diverse range of fluorescence microscopy systems. Acquired images are then analyzed in 3D and 4D, delivering both qualitative and quantitative information. Volocity 5 marks a major advance in handling large datasets, and also features a streamlined user interface.

Leading-edge life science research relies increasingly on three-dimensional or four-dimensional (3D or 4D) cellular imaging. Three dimensional imaging over time is the most accurate method of studying pathway activation at the cellular level. In addition to providing a greater understanding of cellular function, this approach leads to both a better understanding of disease and the action of potential therapeutics.

"The ability to analyze images from all angles, in 3D and in a time lapse environment, is critical to understanding cellular biology. The newest edition of the Volocity software makes this core function much more streamlined and accessible than before," said Richard Eglen, PhD, president, Bio-discovery, PerkinElmer. "This latest Volocity release further shows PerkinElmer's continued commitment to developing industry-leading imaging tools for cellular biology."
