It can display, edit, analyze, process, save and print +8-bit, 16-bit and 32-bit images. It can read many image formats +including TIFF, GIF, JPEG, BMP, DICOM, FITS and "raw". It supports +"stacks", a series of images that share a single window. It is multi- +threaded, so time-consuming operations such as image file reading can +be performed in parallel with other operations. + +ImageJ can calculate area and pixel value statistics of user-defined +selections. It can measure distances and angles. It can create density +histograms and line profile plots. It supports standard image +processing functions such as contrast manipulation, sharpening, +smoothing, edge detection and median filtering. + +ImageJ does geometric transformations such as scaling, rotation and +flips. Image can be zoomed up to 32:1 and down to 1:32. All analysis +and processing functions are available at any magnification factor. +The program supports any number of windows (images) simultaneously, +limited only by available memory. + +Spatial calibration is available to provide real world dimensional +measurements in units such as millimeters. Density or gray scale +calibration is also available. + +ImageJ was designed with an open architecture that provides +extensibility via Java plugins. User-written plugins make it possible +to solve almost any image processing or analysis problem. + +This includes the following additional plugins: +1) Bio-Formats. +2) UCSD confocal microscopy plugins. + +For a complete list of available plugins, check the corresponding +section at the program website. |
