Description:

Visible Human Preprocessing Toolkit (v1.0) For ImageJ  - graphic editor for the 
Visible Human Project
ImageJ is an open source image manipulation program in Java
The Visible Human Project 
http://www.nlm.nih.gov/research/visible/visible_human.html

When working with images from the Visible Human Project,  the pre-
processing of the anatomical images (eliminating the blue gel, centering
the images, eliminating labels) presents a set of unique challenges. The
Visible Human Preprocessing Toolkit was created to provide a fast, easy,
cross-platform set of tools for pre-processing Visible Human Project
images using ImageJ. We hope this approach will facilitate access to
Visible Human images by non-programmers.

The Toolkit allows the user to read and process both male and female
data sets, which consist of anatomical (2048 pixels x 1216 pixels), CT
and MRI images in raw format. It cannot be used (yet) for the higher
resolution images (4096 pixels x 2700 pixels). Once the files are read,
they can be processed in multiple ways. The Toolkit specifically
includes a Blue Gel Removal tool, applicable to both male and female
anatomical datasets, and an Align Feature which will align images in the
male anatomical dataset. With the Toolkit, the user can also apply
macros generated with ImageJ macro functions to the set of original raw
images. After doing the pre-processing, this application allows you to
save images in any of a variety of formats and sizes.

Works across many platforms.
