An introduction to image processing in medical microscopy
1Laboratory of Applied Studies, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD 20892.
Abstract:
Image processing hardware and software have evolved in the past few years into powerful, relatively inexpensive tools for micrographic research. Although now within the reach of most researchers, image processing techniques appear under-utilized based on a review of current biomedical literature. This article will give a basic overview of image processing as applied to both light and electron micrographs, citing current applications.
