XeniumIO

XeniumIO imports and represents spatial transcriptomics data from the 10X Xenium Analyzer pipeline as SpatialExperiment objects.

Key Features:

• Multi-format import: The package supports reading 'parquet', 'h5', and 'mtx' file formats from the 10X Xenium Analyzer output.
• SpatialExperiment representation: Imported data are primarily represented as SpatialExperiment objects for downstream analysis in Bioconductor.

Scientific Applications:

• Spatial transcriptomics analysis: Enables import of subcellular-resolution spatial gene expression data from the 10X Xenium Analyzer for visualization and computational analysis workflows.

Methodology:

The package parses output files from the 10X Xenium Analyzer pipeline and constructs SpatialExperiment objects.
