Felix Zhou's u-Segment3D is out:
www.nature.com/articles/s41...
It leverages 2D cell segmentations from orthoviews to generate a ‘consensus’ 3D segmentation.
It does a great job on segmenting densely packed samples, and we have used the algorithm in many applications.

We are planning the build of a light sheet setup and are considering a Powell lens to generate the sheet.
I've not been able to find a discussion of the pros and cons in literature, so if you ever used a Powell lens or have considered using one in your setup, I would love to hear your opinion. THX!
