Summary:
Vaa3D is a software package that has been widely used to visualize and analyze multidimensional microscopic images in a number of cutting edge bioimage informatics applications. However, due to many recent updates of both software development environments and operating systems, it was highly requested to maintain Vaa3D and disseminate it on latest operating systems. In addition, there has never been a showcase about how to use Vaa3D's cross-platform visualization and immersive exploration functions for multidimensional and teravoxel-scale images. Here, we introduce a newly developed version of the software, called Vaa3D-x, to address all the above issues.
Availability And Implementation:
Vaa3D-x is released in both binary and Open-Source available at vaa3d.org and GitHub (https://github.com/Vaa3D).
Supplementary Information:
Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.

Computed Tomography
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...

Definition and Purpose
An X-ray, or radiograph, is a non-invasive method that uses ionizing radiation to take images of internal structures. It is mainly used in cardiac imaging to examine the heart, lungs, and major blood vessels, aiming to identify abnormalities in the heart's size, shape, and position, such as heart failure, congenital defects, and vascular...
