flimview : A software framework to handle, visualize and analyze FLIM data

What is it about?

flimview is a bio-imaging Python software package to read, explore, manage and visualize Fluorescence-Lifetime Imaging Microscopy (FLIM) images. It can open the standard FLIM data file conventions (e.g., sdt and ptu) and processes them from the raw format to a more readable and manageable binned and fitted format. It allows customized kernels for binning the data as well as user defined masking operations for pre-processing the images. It also allows customized fluorescence decay fitting functions and preserves all of the metadata generated for provenance and reproducibility. Outcomes from the analysis are lossless compressed and stored in an efficient way providing the necessary open-source tools to access and explore the data.
