Huygens Chromatic Aberration Corrector
Estimate + correct xyz shifts, scaling, and rotational differences between channels
Nearly all multi-channel images show at least some degree of chromatic aberration causing shifts in xyz, and possible scaling and rotation differences between fluorescent channels. These aberrations clearly affect any type of multi-channel analysis like colocalization and object-based analysis, and should thus be fixed. Huygens Chromatic Aberration Corrector quickly estimates, visualizes, and corrects chromatic aberrations. If you suspect any additional crosstalk/bleed-through in your multi-channel data, you may want to have a look at the Crosstalk Corrector as well.
Automatic and Easy
Estimation and correction with a few button clicks.
Accurate correction
Shifts are visualized for easy verification.
Multiple methods
Correction can be optimized for each specific image.

Huygens Chromatic Aberration Corrector Gallery
Recording Beads is a good method to calibrate the existing chromatic aberration. The result of the analysis and correction delivered by the Chromatic Aberration Corrector on a beads image can easily be saved to a template and applied to any image taken under similar conditions. Left: MIP rendered projection of a Huygens deconvolved 3D widefield stack of 100nm 4-channel multicoloured beads (TetraSpeck - Life Technologies). Chromatic Aberration between channels can be more clearly measured and corrected after deconvolution. Right: MIP projection of the same image after using the Huygens Chromatic Aberration Corrector. Insets show a larger view of a single XZ slice of one bead.
