Analyzing Unmarked Events
ISC Webmaster2024-11-19T14:41:29-05:00In order for IonWizard to fit untriggered events, you need to tell the software where the event begins, or, tell the software to look for these events for you. This document explains how to do this.

ISC Webmaster2023-09-05T17:21:07-05:00This documents details the procedure for spatially calibrating an IonOptix system using the Sarcomere Tool.
Transient Analysis Tutor
ISC Webmaster2025-10-16T21:56:35-05:00This document shows in steps how to do a standard analysis with IonWizard 5 & 6. We have also added an example data file that you can use to practice the tutorial with.
Vessel Flow Characterization
ISC Webmaster2026-06-03T14:17:24-05:00The endothelial response to flow-induced stress (e.g., the generation and secretion of nitric oxide) is an important modulator of vascular tone and function, linking vasodilation and constriction to …
Cardiac Myocytes
ISC Webmaster2019-10-22T17:39:22-05:00The largest group of IonOptix users are investigators who study cardiac myocytes and want information about contractility parameters and the associated calcium transients. Our aim is to offer you a complete recording system for these experiments.
