Nutil

Nutil aims to simplify and streamline the mechanism of pre-and-post processing 2D brain imaging data from mouse and rat. It is an integral part of the QUINT workflow for regional quantification of labelled objects such as cells in histological imaging data.

For installation and user instructions see: https://nutil.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

Getting started

Download here on github or from https://www.nitrc.org/projects/nutil/

Nutil is written in C++ using standard Qt libraries, and is optimised for parallel operations on multiple CPUs. Nutil does not require any installation, and does not currently utilise any GPU extensions. The external libraries that are used in Nutil are:

Compiling from source

  1. In order to compile from scratch, the following software components are also required:
  1. Download and install Qt Creator for open source users (https://www.qt.io/download) Install the Qt framework version 6 or above (create a user account, custom install, select newest version and MSVC 2019).
  2. Install git (https://desktop.github.com/)
  3. Clone this repository to a folder (in github desktop: file->clone repository)
  4. Open the project file in Qt (file->open file or project)
  5. Set up a build path to the project (projects->build->build directory)
  6. Compile and run! (ctrl+r)

Acknowledgements

Nutil is an integral part of the QUINT workflow and is developed by the Neural Systems Laboratory at the Institute of Basic Medical Sciences, University of Oslo, Norway. Nutil was developed with support from the EBRAINS infrastructure, and funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Framework Programme for Research and Innovation under the Framework Partnership Agreement No. 650003 (HBP FPA).
