VisuAlign is a tool that allows in-plane refinement of the QuickNII registration using non-linear methods.

• It is a manual process that involves placing anchor points on that atlas overlay which are then dragged to their correct position on the underlying section.

• This step is optional, but can be used to improve the registration by adjusting for distortions as well as anatomical differences between brains.

• The results from VisuAlign are exported in machine-readable formats such as JSON, XML and FLAT files that are directly compatible with Nutil as long as the file naming convention has been followed.
