- UNRAVEL is a Python package & command line tool for the analysis of brain-wide imaging data, automating:
- Registration of brain-wide images to a common atlas space
- Quantification of cell/label densities across the brain
- Voxel-wise analysis of fluorescent signals and cluster correction
- Validation of hot/cold spots via cell/label density quantification at cellular resolution
- UNRAVEL can be installed via the Python Package Index (PyPI) with this command:
pip install heifetslab-unravel
- Initial UNRAVEL publication
- UNRAVEL was developed by the Heifets lab and TensorAnalytics
- Additional support/guidance was provided by:
Please see UNRAVEL documentation for guides on installation and analysis
- UNRAVEL visualizer is a web-based tool for visualizing and exploring 3D maps output from UNRAVEL
- UNRAVEL visualizer GitHub repo
- Developed by MetaCell with support from the Heifets lab
