Bersoft Image Measurement (BIM) is created as a flexible tool for acquiring, measuring and analyzing digital images. The measurements may be done by pointing and clicking or in an automated way, when doing statistical or analytical measurements. BIM can load many different types of images, including DICOM files, and also supports image acquisition from most TWAIN scanners. Angle, distance, perimeter, area, point and line measurements may be done using by using the tools in the Tools Palette. Spatial calibration is available to provide real world dimensional measurements such as kilometers, centimeters, millimeters, nanometers, microns, cm, miles , etc,. for both linear and area measurements. All manual measurements are written into a Data Sheet, where you also can enter and edit data by hand. The measurements are drawn over a measurement layer, so the original image is not altered in any way. For convenient further statistical analysis the Data Sheets results can be exported as CVS, HTML or ASCII file formats. They also can be send directly to Excel or copied and pasted to any other program. The professional version of the program supports further image analysis capabilities as: Pixel profile, Array/band analysis, Object counting. Statistical measurement can be done either on a selected image area, the full image, or on several images at once. Count, mean, median, minimum, maximum, range, variance, standard deviation, standard error, coefficient of variation, skew, kurtosis and frequencies are supported.
