title: SignalViewer: analyzing microarray images.
abstract: Microarray technology is now routinely used to monitor genome-wide expression profiles. However, current microarray imaging and analysis packages typically require manual intervention and assumptions on alignments. Unfortunately, limitations and assumptions are typically undisclosed and methods are not published. To facilitate exploration of image data, we developed SignalViewer. This paper presents a description of the application.
