The Particle Analysis window is an interface into the analyzeparticles function. Included in the interface are controls for adjusting settings for the particle analysis and exploring the results. Once the particle analysis is complete you can export the resulting image and or table to analysis.

Interface

The Particle Analysis interface has three main areas for the image, particle table, and analysis function settings. The basic workflow:

  1. Load image data.
  2. Adjust function settings.
  3. Run the particle analysis.
  4. Explore the results.
  5. Repeat steps 2-4 until you have the desired results.
  6. Save or export your results.
