using ImageJ software Parameters to be included: • Number of nodes • Number of meshes • Total branch length Image J software • ImageJ is public domain software for processing and analyzing scientific images.
• It is written in Java, which allows it to run on many
different platforms such as Linux, Mac OS X and Windows, in both 32-bit and 64-bit modes.
• We can use ImageJ to display, annotate, edit,
calibrate, measure, analyze, process, print, and save image data.
