CI Convert (LIF to Images and Images to LIF)

• Convert and Stitch[2] TileScans from Leica LIF to SVS/TIFF/ImageJTiff format.
• Convert Large Stitched (Merged TileScans) images from Leica LIF  to SVS/TIFF/ImageJTiff format.
• Convert image files to Leica LIF Format. Multichannel images in 2D, 3D and time are supported.
• Convert ImageXpress Pico Experiments to Leica LIF.

This program uses the Matlab Runtime 2022b , the installer wil download the Matlab Runtime automatically, the zipfile contains the CIConvert executable only, so you have to install the Matlab Runtime yourself.
