ImageJ 2.2.0 – Image Processing & Analysis in Java

ImageJ 2.2.0

:: DESCRIPTION

ImageJ is a public domain Java image processing program.ImageJ was designed with an open architecture that provides extensibility via Java plugins and recordable macros. Custom acquisition, analysis and processing plugins can be developed using ImageJ’s built-in editor and a Java compiler. User-written plugins make it possible to solve many image processing and analysis problems, from three-dimensional live-cell imaging, to radiological image processing, multiple imaging system data comparisons to automated hematology systems.
