Cardiac Software

BV Workbench Ver.4 is the latest version of data analysis software developed for optical mapping and calcium imaging of the brain and heart.

In addition to data files acquired with Brainvision's MiCAM imaging system, it is also possible to open 16-bit TIFF files acquired with cameras and imaging systems from other companies.

In comparison to the previous version, this version has significantly improved functions such as cardiac analysis, various map displays, and image export. The software allows researchers to quickly create highly accurate output data for scientific papers.

Cardiac/Neuro Imaging Applications:
Cardiac sample:
- Langendorff perfused isolated heart
