“…There are several software tools that aim to facilitate the reconstructions of the neurons, employing different approaches-either extracting tracings from stacks of images, as is the case for Snake (Wang et al, 2011), APP2 (Xiao and Peng, 2013), flNeuronTool (Ming et al, 2013), SmartTracing (Chen et al, 2015), NeuTube (Feng et al, 2015), Rivulet (Liu et al, 2016), TreeMap (Zhou et al, 2016), NeuroGPS-Tree (Quan et al, 2016), Neuron tracer (Wang et al, 2017) and ShuTu (Jin et al, 2019); or processing neuronal tracings as occurs with Lasserre (Lasserre et al, 2012), Filament editor (Dercksen et al, 2014), NeuTube (Feng et al, 2015) and NeuroMorphoVis (Abdellah et al, 2018). Some tools use the neuronal tracings to create 3D meshes; for example, NeuroTessMesh (Garcia-Cantero et al, 2017), NeuroMorphoVis (Abdellah et al, 2018), Neuronize (Brito et al, 2013), and Lasserre (Lasserre et al, 2012). These tools facilitate the automatic tracing of neuronal structures and the correction of tracing errors to make reconstructions more accurate and efficient.…”
