Scientific Volume Imaging Huygens Software
Scientific Volume Imaging Huygens Software
PTC is granted the only Official Distributor and Certified Gold Partner of Scientific Volume Imaging software in Hong Kong and Macau.
The Huygens Software is named after Christiaan Huygens, who studied and described the diffraction of light waves. The Software includes many image processing options, for brightfield and all types of fluorescence Microscope images. With Huygens it is possible to perform image deconvolution and restoration, interactive analysis and volume visualization in 2D-4D, multi-channel and time. Additional Server and GPU-based Options ensure maximization of hardware performance.
What’s New
The Image Quality Control (QC) tool can analyse images and bead data thoroughly, alerting users any potential problems, such as microscopic parameters, crosstalk, chromatic aberration, stability and bleaching issues. Each detected issue can be directly verified and fixed through the QC tool.
Better yet, a free online version – with limited features – is available here for trial.
Huygens Software
Huygens offers deconvolution for postprocessing of raw data from different kinds of microscopy, like confocal, widefield, Multi-photon, Spinning-disk, STED, Array-detector, Light-sheet, Rescan, Visitech, Aurox, 4-pi, etc., and various metadata is supported including Leica LIF; Zeiss CZI, LSM, ZVI; Nikon ND2, Deltavion DV, OME TIFF, Abberior OBF, MSR; and many more! The theoretical or measured PSF is fed into the most advanced MLE algorithms that currently exist to restore the image and to effectively correct blur, noise and background. Note that the Huygens MLE algorithms conserve the intensities, so your deconvolution results will still be quantifiable, and even more so, the deconvolved results will be much easier to analyze compared to the raw data.
Restore the information lost in microscopy imaging

Correct XYZshifts, rotations, scaling and radical differences between channels
- HeLa cells stained with two different fluorophores. This image shows a shift between the two different channels which has been corrected with Huygens Chromatic Aberration Corrector. Raw image data was provided by Dr. Yury Belyaev, ALMF, EMBL Heidelberg, Germany
Object segmentation and analysis – Combine Artifical Intelligence with class methods
With unique 3D visualization and 11 colocalization coefficients available
Study 3D motion of cells and small particles in time series
- FUCCI cells tracked for 50 seconds with Huygens Object Tracker. Courtesy of Dr. Richard Wubbolts, Center for Cell Imaging, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, University of Utrecht, The Netherlands.
Easy to use Wizard with automated estimation and correction
High-quality stitching without artefacts for all microscopy data types
Visualizes iso-surfaces of 3D volumes
- Complete organoid visualized using Huygens Surface Renderer. The original confocal image of 493 Z-planes of an organoid stained for nuclei was first deconvolved and then rendered with Huygens. Courtesy of Dr. Rolando Berlinguer Palmini, BioImaging Unit, Newcastle University, UK
Realistic 3D visualization of fluorescent material
Obtain projections of the highest possible quality
