title: 'spaSim: Spatial point data simulator for tissue images'
version: 1.7.0
abstract: A suite of functions for simulating spatial patterns of cells in tissue
  images. Output images are multitype point data in SingleCellExperiment format. Each
  point represents a cell, with its 2D locations and cell type. Potential cell patterns
  include background cells, tumour/immune cell clusters, immune rings, and blood/lymphatic
  vessels.
