Leica QWin Plus

Leica QWin Plus is a powerful and versatile software package for image processing and analysis designed specifically for quantifying microscope images. It includes all of the features of QWin Lite and in addition provides the facility for automatic measurement of multiple image features.

Image Processing
Grey processing methods convert one stored image into a modified version according to a selected transform.

Leica QWin offers a vast range of alternatives - encompassing grey level morphology, convolutions and look-up table transforms, all working at high speed on mega pixel images in monochrome or colour. Some examples include tophat, flood, maxima, build, delineate, fill, closing.

Watershed transforms are used to perform image segmentation independent of the detection method and are suitable for images where markers can be derived that identify the regions to be identified.

Objects are selected for binary image processing and measurement by the Detection process. In the case of grey images the threshold used may be darker or lighter than a single threshold or, between two thresholds.
