  Phasor-FLIM (highly recommend, a very good seminar from the original group (Enrico Gratton)  FRET trajectory is also explained.

.  In the tutorial, many aspects of the software are covered and a tutorial on how to calculate FRET using Phasors on Alexa488 Tubulin and Alexa 555 Tubulin example data and removing unwanted signals using the phasor approach
