LaRoME = Label + Region Of Interest + Measure

Label image (aka Count Masks): An image in which pixels of an object have all the same value. Each object has a unique value.

Measurement image: An image in which pixels of an object have all the same value, corresponding to a measurement (Area, Angle, Mean...)

Using a Hamamatsu slide scanner such as the NanoZoomer, you may end up with NDPI files that can't always be directly open in standard image analysis software such as ImageJ. NDPITools is a collection of software that can convert NDPI files to standard TIFF files, possibly cutting them into smaller JPEG or TIFF pieces that will better fit into your computer's memory. It comes with a bundle of plugins for ImageJ which enable the use of the software directly inside ImageJ with point-and-click.

This small plugin demonstrates the use of OpenSlide in java: it  will extract an imageJ roi drawn from the thumbnail of the whole slide image, or the full image at the desired resolution from an hammatsu NDPI file. Note that z stack are not supported by openslide (neitheir ndpiS).

PSFj is a software tool that automatically analyses the full field-of-view (FOV) performance of a given fluorescence microscope/objective lens combination with respect to its optical resolution and chromatic aberrations. PSFj provides reporting functions to document the momentary performance of a system and it allows for the export of the obtained data, e.g. for image restoration purposes. PSFj is based on ImageJ and JAVA, and runs on Windows, Mac, and Linux PCs as a stand-alone application.

Starting from image stacks, the nuclear boundary as well as nuclear bodies are segmented. As output, NucleusJ automatically measures 15 parameters quantifying shape and size of nuclei as well as intra-nuclear objects and the positioning of the objects within the nuclear volume.
