# QuPath

**QuPath is open source software for bioimage analysis**.

Features include:

* Lots of tools to annotate and view images, including whole slide & microscopy images

* Workflows for brightfield & fluorescence image analysis

* New algorithms for common tasks, including cell segmentation, tissue microarray dearraying

* Interactive machine learning for object & pixel classification

* Customization, batch-processing & data interrogation by scripting

* Easy integration with other tools, including ImageJ

To **download QuPath**, go to the [Latest Releases](https://github.com/qupath/qupath/releases/latest) page.
