Image Processing with ImageJ - Second Edition

Overview of this book

Advances in image processing have been vital for the scientific and technological communities, making it possible to analyze images in greater detail than ever before. But as images become larger and more complex, advanced processing techniques are required. ImageJ is built for the modern challenges of image processing – it’s one of the key tools in its development, letting you automate basic tasks so you can focus on sophisticated, in depth analysis. This book demonstrates how to put ImageJ into practice. It outlines its key features and demonstrates how to create your own image processing applications using macros and ImageJ plugins. Once you’ve got to grips with the basics of ImageJ, you’ll then discover how to build a number of different image processing solutions. From simple tasks to advanced and automated image processing, you’ll gain confidence with this innovative and powerful tool – however and whatever you are using it for.

Summary


In this chapter, we looked at the anatomy of plugins for ImageJ1.x and ImageJ2. We also looked at some of the specific constructs that are used in plugins for both frameworks. We examined how to compile, run, and debug our plugins using the tools provided by ImageJ or using the IDE. We looked at some established plugins and how they implemented plugins to perform a task in image processing.

This knowledge will be applied in the next chapter where we will create a plugin from scratch to perform image processing.
