[Histonet] RE: Image analysis for fat tissue

[Jerry Ricks]

Hi,

That is a pretty common kind of measurement.


You will need a digital camera attached to your microscope, and a stage micrometer.  You can then use the free software "Image-J" to get area measurements.  If you have some extra money "Image-Pro" software from Media Cybernetics is the deluxe way to go.
