Abstract

NIH Image is a public domain image analysis software originally written by Wayne Rasband at the National Institute of Mental Health. This software allows students to quantify aspects of digitized images captured from a microscope, scanner, video camera or other sources. Area, length and perimeter are all easily calculated with minimal time investment. Additionally, images can be stacked to create time lapse animations.
