< | '''What is MiToBo?'''<br> | ||
The Microscope Image Analysis Toolbox MiToBo is a toolbox with a large collection of basic and advanced functions and algorithms for processing and analyzing digital images. Many tools in MiToBo target at the analysis of various kinds of microscopy data, however, most of the functionality within MiToBo is generic (see [[Features|page of features]] for an overview). MiToBo is implemented as extension for the widely used image processing application [http://rsbweb.nih.gov/ij/ ImageJ]/[https://fiji.sc/ Fiji] and its new release [http://developer.imagej.net/ ImageJ 2.0]. All functions, operators and plugins of MiToBo are ready to be directly used as plugins in ImageJ and Fiji.<br /><br/> | |||
