ImFCS Software

ImFCS is a software to perform auto- and cross-correlations of image stacks acquired from camera based FCS. The software is programmed to work in Windows © OS with Igor Pro © (Ver 6.0 and later) as front end. This software can read image stacks, calculate correlations, fit the curves and display the parameters as images.

Latest Update (updated on Apr 14 2016)

The "numer of particles" image displayed after fitting needs to be multiplied by a factor 4 to accurately show the number of particles per pixel.

Warning:

1. There have been instances of the program crashing when used in Windows 7 64 bit. Hence it is advised to avoid this particular OS configuration.

2. ImFCS at the moment runs only under IgorPro 6.22A but not under the newer version 6.3.

3. The "kill" button can only be used for a limited number of times (4 to 10) depending on the file size loaded due to a memory mismanagment problem.
