The digital slide, or Whole Slide Image, is a digital image, acquired with specific scanners, that represents a complete tissue sample or cytological specimen at microscopic level. While Whole Slide image analysis is recognized among the most interesting opportunities, the typical size of such images-up to Gpixels- can be very demanding in terms of memory requirements. Thus, while algorithms an...

This software is intended for the analysis of SEM 1 imagery of cheese microstructure. It might be also used in connection with different acquisition technologies or for different applications where porous materials are involved. However, being tailored to a specific application, you cannot be sure it will be of any use in your application. Applicability of this software should be evaluated for ...

PURPOSE To evaluate optic disc pallor using ImageJ in traumatic optic neuropathy (TON). METHODS This study examined unilateral TON patients. The optic disc was divided into 4 quadrants (temporal, superior, nasal, and inferior), consistent with the quadrants on optical coherence tomography (OCT) retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness maps. Optic disc photography was performed and disc pall...

In the past decade, a significant number of proteins involved in the developmental assembly and maturation of synapses have been identified. However, detailed knowledge of the molecular processes underlying developmental synapse assembly is still sparse. We have developed an approach that makes extended in vivo imaging of selected proteins in live Drosophila larvae feasible at a single-synapse ...

OBJECTIVE To investigate whether a cheap, fast, easy, and widely available photographic method is an accurate alternative to Visitrak when measuring wound area in cases where a non-wound-contact method is desirable. METHODS The areas of 40 surgically created wounds on porcine models were measured using 2 techniques-Visitrak and photography combined with ImageJ. The wounds were photographed wi...

Characterizing the physical properties of a surface is largely dependent on determining the contact angle exhibited by a liquid. Contact angles on the surfaces of rough and irregularly-shaped food samples are difficult to measure using a contact angle meter (goniometer). As a consequence, values for the surface energy and its components can be mismeasured. The aim of this work was to use a nove...

Landmark correspondences can be used for various tasks in image processing such as image alignment, reconstruction of panoramic photographs, object recognition and simultaneous localization and mapping for mobile robots. The computer vision community knows several techniques for extracting and pairwise associating such landmarks using distinctive invariant local image features. Two very success...
