raw\/data\/.* All raw stack data files for the MERFISH experiment.
raw\/data\/[^\/]+\.dax The raw image stack.
raw\/data\/[^\/]+\.inf Information file with dax image format specifications. Variable expected for downstream processing with PIPEFISH are frame dimensions, number of frames, little/big endian, stage X and Y locations, lock target, scalemin, and scalemax.
raw\/images\/.* Directory containing raw image files. This directory should include at least one raw file.
raw\/images\/[^\/]+\.tif Raw microscope file for the experiment.
lab_processed\/.* Experiment files that were processed by the lab generating the data.

lab_processed\/images\/.* Processed image files
lab_processed\/images\/[^\/]+\.ome\.tiff (example: lab_processed/images/HBM892.MDXS.293.ome.tiff) OME-TIFF files (multichannel, multi-layered) produced by the microscopy experiment. If compressed, must use loss-less compression algorithm. For Visium this stitched file should only include the single capture area relevant to the current dataset. For GeoMx there will be one OME TIFF file per slide, with each slide including multiple AOIs. See the following link for the set of fields that are required in the OME TIFF file XML header. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1YnmdTAA0Z9MKN3OjR3Sca8pz-LNQll91wdQoRPSP6Q4/edit#gid=0
