ImageJ Plugins

The imaging workstations within the centre have several plugins installed for use with microscopy images. These can be accessed from the ImageJ Plugins menu.

LOCI The Bio-Formats plugin allows many different image formats to be read into ImageJ. Choose Plugins > LOCI > Bio-Formats Importer to load images
OMERO The OMERO plugin allows images to be read from an OMERO server into ImageJ
GDSC Contains analysis programs for microscopy images including colocalisation analysis and peak finding

GDSC Plugins

Download the plugin.

Find Peaks

The Find Peaks plugins allow the identification of peak intensity regions within 2D and 3D images. The tools provide: the automated and semi-automated labelling of peaks; comparison of marked points between images; and alignment of manually marked points to peak maxima.

Colocalisation Analysis

The GDSC Colocalisation plugins provide various tools to perform colocalisation analysis. The tools provide: thresholding for N-dimensional images for signal identification; correlation and overlap coefficient analysis; and colocalisation significance testing.

Utility Plugins

The GDSC plugins provide various utility tools for image analysis. The tools include: thresholding and mask generation; difference of Gaussians for contrast enhancement; stack synchronisation for simultaneous image viewing; and image alignment.

Batch Processing

ImageJ can run a plugin on many images in a single batch process. Full details and examples of the batch functionality can be found in the ImageJ Batch Processing Guide.
