Hi,

We have a series of tissue slices that have tumour within them and we
would like to quantify the area within each slice that is occupied by
tumour.  Is there a cheap or free program that will assist in this?
either by automatically looking for colours or for a user to manual draw
round a shape and it give you the area?

Not exactly bioconductor related but the idea is to quantify this and
then do various bioinformatics on it.  Hope you forgive me.

Thanks


Dan
