由于图像采集和图像分析技术的进步，对用于放射学应用的图像处理软件的需求一直在增加。现有图像处理软件的效用通常受到成本、缺乏灵活性和/或特定硬件要求的限制。特别地，许多现有的包不能直接利用使用DICOM标准的第10部分中的规范格式化的图像（“DICOM图像”）。我们展示了如何使用ImageJ（一个免费的基于Java的图像处理软件包）直接对DICOM图像进行图像分析（http：//rsb.info.nih.gov/ij/）。我们演示了如何在我们的实验室编写的插件可以使用沿着与ImageJ宏脚本语言，以创建灵活的，低成本的，多平台的图像处理应用程序，可以直接由DICOM图像标题中包含的信息。
The demand for image-processing software for radiology applications has been increasing, fueled by advancements in both image-acquisition and image-analysis techniques. The utility of existing image-processing software is often limited by cost, lack of flexibility, and/or specific hardware requirements. In particular, many existing packages cannot directly utilize images formatted using the specifications in part 10 of the DICOM standard ("DICOM images"). We show how image analyses can be performed directly on DICOM images by using ImageJ, a free, Java-based image-processing package (http://rsb.info.nih.gov/ij/). We demonstrate how plug-ins written in our laboratory can be used along with the ImageJ macro script language to create flexible, low-cost, multiplatform image-processing applications that can be directed by information contained in the DICOM image header.
