Suite3D: Volumetric cell detection for two-photon microscopy.

ABSTRACT: In two-photon imaging of neuronal activity it is common to acquire 3-dimensional volumes. However, these volumes are typically processed plane by plane, leading to duplicated cells across planes, reduced signal-to-noise ratio per cell, uncorrected axial movement, and missed cells. To overcome these limitations, we introduce Suite3D, a volumetric cell detection pipeline. Suite3D corrects for 3D brain motion, estimating axial motion and improving estimates of lateral motion. It detects neurons using 3D correlation, which improves the signal-to-background ratio and detectability of cells. Finally, it performs 3D segmentation, detecting cells across imaging planes. We validated Suite3D with data from conventional multi-plane microscopes and advanced volumetric microscopes, at various resolutio
