Vessel Nodes

Vessel reconstruction and analysis is available with the Neurolucida 360 Ultra package only. Click here for more information.

Purpose

Nodes analysis provides the location and size metrics for selected nodes. A node is defined as the intersection of 2 segments. It is traced as a point with a diameter in XYZ space. You can find Nodes in the Vessel Data section of the Analyze ribbon, or you can access it from Network analysis.

Analysis results

Node diameter: Diameter of the first segment traced at the node location.

Node volume/surface area: Each node is modeled as a sphere. The diameter used for the calculations is the node diameter defined above.

Base coordinates: (X, Y, Z) position of the node.
