ImageJ is a public domain Java image processing program inspired by
NIH Image for the Macintosh. It runs, either as an online applet or as a
downloadable application, on any computer with a Java 1.1 or later virtual
machine. Downloadable distributions are available for Windows, Mac OS,
Mac OS X and Linux.

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 multithreaded, so time-consuming operations
such as image file reading can be performed in parallel with other operations.

It 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.

It 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. Custom acquisition, analysis and processing plugins can
be developed using ImageJ's built in editor and Java compiler. User-written
plugins make it possible to solve almost any image processing or analysis
problem.

ImageJ is being developed on Mac OS X using its built in editor and Java
compiler, plus the BBEdit editor and the Ant build tool. The source code
is freely available. The author, Wayne Rasband (wayne@codon.nih.gov), is at
the Research Services Branch, National Institute of Mental Health, Bethesda,
Maryland, USA.
