- Convert and Stitch[2] TileScans from Leica LIF/XLEF to SVS/TIFF/ImageJTiff format.
- Convert Large Stitched (Merged TileScans) images from Leica LIF/XLEF 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 2023b , the installer wil download the Matlab Runtime automatically, the zipfile contains the CIConvert executable only, so you have to install the Matlab Runtime yourself.
