Image analysis 2#

General information#

Main objective#

In this lesson you will learn about the foundation of image analysis. You will learn (i) basic concepts of image analysis such as image matrix, bit-depth, lookup table, histogram and threshold (ii) how to apply these concepts using ImageJ to proceed with image analysis.

Learning objectives#

Learning objective 1 - You can explain the following concepts

  • conversions: 8- and 16-bit pseudo color images and 32-bit floating point images to RGB

  • multichannel images

  • point operations

  • filters

  • transforms

Learning objective 2 - You can perform these operations using ImageJ

  • converting to RGB image

  • use channels tool

  • use image calculator

  • use image math

  • use basic fileters & transfroms

Resources#

Completing the image analysis part of the course requires accomplishing some exercises. All required images for these exercises should be downloaded from Github-ScopeM-teaching
