PicPreview and PicSummary: Two Timesaving Plugins for the Fluorescence Microscopist.

ABSTRACT: This article targets cell biologists who use fluorescence microscopy but lack automatic tools to summarize and manage their image datasets. When using microscopy to document a phenotype, multiple and random pictures are required to reflect the biological diversity of each imaged sample. Managing, integrating and summarizing the acquired data can be a daunting task that becomes extremely time-consuming unless one automatizes it. Unfortunately, if many biologists use microscopy, only a few have automatized procedures to cope with the data generated. For the majority of microscope users, the two developed complementary ImageJ plugins, PicPreview and PicSummary, will allow, in a few clicks and in an instant, to obtain an overview of all pictures taken for each sample of an experiment and a sum
