Measurement and data
Photoshop has long been used to obtain qualitative data from medical and scientic
imaging—for example, is a region larger or smaller in this image than it was in the previous
image? In Photoshop
CS3 Extended, you can
now obtain quantitative
data as well—in other
words, not just is it

these results, you

door frame in a building

the image, including
the image histogram

ird, use any of the familiar Photoshop selection tools to dene the area to be measured.
One click later, and you have your results in a simple tabular format, which can be read in

publication or presentation.
