    Phoenix Research Labs and Voxeleron (both in Pleasanton, CA) have partnered to lead in the development of optical coherence tomography (OCT) segmentation software. The strategic partnership will enable the two companies to apply Voxeleron's segmentation technology to Phoenix's Image-Guided OCT data, thereby allowing users to readily analyze retinal layers and precisely measure changes to thickness and structure over time.

    Voxeleron's algorithms allow automatic analysis of layer thickness in the mouse and rat eye, explains Phoenix Research founder and CEO Bert Massie, Ph.D., while Phoenix's Image-Guided OCT data provides a precise and documented location for the OCT scan. Both will work with the company's InSight XL automated analysis tool to facilitate longitudinal studies, he adds.

    The OCT segmentation software tool will ship with Phoenix’s Image-Guided OCT System at the end of 2013.
