HomeCageScan

Posted by & filed under .

HomeCageScan is the flagship product in the PhenoScan Suite series of software for automatically studying unconstrained rodent behaviors in a home cage for either short or extended periods of time (24/7). Our premise for developing HomeCageScan is that behavioral phenotypes are often best detected when the rodent is unconstrained by experimenter manipulation. Thus, automated high […]


TopScan Suite

Posted by & filed under .

TopScan is a general purpose Top‐view based behavior analysis system and was the first to use animal body parts (since 2002) to provide the most accurate behavior analysis results possible. It is applicable to a wide range of experiments, from the most basic animal tracking task to more complicated tasks such as Novel Object Recognition […]


GaitScan

Posted by & filed under .

GaitScan is a component of our NeurodegenScan Suite and meets the needs for gait analysis of animals. Gait analysis allows highly sensitive, noninvasive detection and evaluation of many pathophysiological conditions, such as those occurring in Spinal Cord Injury, Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, ALS, arthritis, pain, neuromuscular and skeletal muscle diseases. GaitScan system takes video of […]


FreezeScan

Posted by & filed under .

Freezing behavior has found wide applications and has become a standard experiment in the study of learning and memory in areas such as molecular biology, genetics, and cognitive science. However, manual observation of freezing behavior is tedious, can contain subjective bias, and suffers from lack of reliability, consistency and practicality. Moreover, it is slow and […]


SeizureScan

Posted by & filed under .

SeizureScan is a specialized product for the automation of seizure behavior detection of rodents in a home cage. SeizureScan analyzes video from a side view (essential for body part detection) and outputs various occurrences of seizures in the animal based on the Racine scale. This automated method for analysis of epileptic seizures in real‐time or […]


TopScan LITE

Posted by & filed under .

TopScan Lite is a modified version of TopScan so researchers can obtain a high quality product with the lowest price available in the market today. Examples of applications include Open Field, Novel Object Recognition, Maze Analysis, Morris Water Maze, Barnes Maze, Place Preference, etc. Using a four-point tracking method (Nose, Fore Body center, Body Center […]


TreadScan

TreadScan is a component of our NeurodegenScan Suite and meets the needs for gait analysis of animals. Gait analysis allows highly sensitive, noninvasive detection and evaluation of many pathophysiological conditions, such as those occurring in Spinal Cord Injury, Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, ALS, arthritis, pain, neuromuscular and skeletal muscle diseases. TreadScan system takes video of […]


DrugEffectScan

Posted by & filed under .

DrugEffectScan is an optional module for TopScan that is a powerful and effective tool for detecting  commonly occurring behaviors of animals under drug effects: head waving and darting. DrugEffectScan provides several measures for the detection of head waving including:  number of times the head turns to the left, number of times the head turns to […]


PrimateScan

Posted by & filed under .

PrimateScan is a software analysis tool similar to HomeCageScan, designed for the automated detection of Primate behaviors in a transparent cage. Our premise for developing PrimateScan is that behavioral measures are more viable when data is collected when test subjects are unconstrained by experimenter manipulation. Thus, automated high throughput analysis of behaviors in the primate […]


LocoScan

Posted by & filed under .

Analysis of Locomotor behavior in rodents is a common and important measure in preclinical research studies. Locomotion experiments are used to test the levels of activity of the animals, rhythms of their movements including randomness, inclination to stay close to the walls (thigmotaxis) or move closer to the center of the arena etc. Often drugs […]
