SCiLS lab - The advanced mass spectrometry imaging software solution

SCiLS Lab is the leading software for analysis of mass spectrometry imaging data and is an integral part of Bruker’s MALDI molecular imager solution. Comparative analysis of multiple samples can be visualized in both 2D and 3D allowing a multitude of applications in pharmaceutical, medical, and industrial research.

Statistical analysis of MALDI imaging data has never been easier with the software from SCiLS GmbH. The product family SCiLS Lab supports all major Bruker instruments and is part of the integrated solutions Molecular Drug Imager and the rapifleX MALDI Tissue typer.

SCiLS Lab

The software package for Bruker mass spectrometers, SCiLS Lab can be used for the analysis of one or more MALDI imaging datasets. Multiple data sets can be loaded and spatially aligned in a tiled manner. Compositions of data sets of virtually unlimited size can be visualized and statistically analyzed for detailed interpretation. Also, SCiLS Lab can be used for construction of 3D MALDI imaging data from consecutive 2D datasets, and visualization and analysis of 3D MALDI imaging data.

SCiLS Lab MVS

The software package for vendor-neutral data analysis, SCiLS Lab MVS can be used for the analysis of mass spectrometry imaging datasets based on the open imzML data format. SCiLS Lab MVS offers all features of SCiLS Lab for non-Bruker mass spectrometers and it allows the statistical analysis and visualization of mass spectrometry imaging data of virtually unlimited size in two and three spatial dimensions.
