During volumetric imaging, Scanbox displays all images as they are acquired. This can be inconvenient if we are trying to visually assess the activity of neurons within any one optical slice. One solution is to display the images separately in a montage by means of a Scanbox plug-in. However, it would be better to have such an option integrated into Scanbox. A new feature offers this possibility.
Turning on a “Slice” checkbox within the Optotune panel will make a pull-down menu within the display appear. This menu allows selection of the optical slice you want to visualize. Unchecking the slice checkbox allows Scanbox to go back to its normal operation of showing all images in the incoming stream.
Here is a brief demo showing this feature. Enjoy…
