Objectives
After this course you should be able to:
- Load and visualise light microscopy datasets. Add scale-bars and produce images for publication.
- Construct and implement image analysis workflows for simple tasks such as cell counting.
- Batch process all image files in a given directory with the same sequence of tasks (if time allows).
Aims
During this course you will learn about:
- Basic image handling, manipulation and visualisation using Fiji. This will include working with multi-channel, z-stack and time-lapse data. Loading of common microscopy file formats will also be demonstrated.
- Common image analysis and processing techniques. This will include automated thresholding, de-noising, spot detection and background subtraction.
- The design of simple analysis workflows.
- Batch processing using the ImageJ macro language (if time allows).
