What it does
Dragonfly is a scientific image-analysis suite for image-stack processing, segmentation, measurement and reporting.
Dragonfly connects a stack workflow with segmentation, measurement and reporting: load and align the images, crop or filter them, then extract the structures relevant to the analysis. Macros and scripting can repeat that work. Access has several distinct routes. The fully functional trial lasts 30 days from first launch; commercial use needs an annual or perpetual licence. Free academic licences are discretionary, limited to qualifying non-profit work, last one year and may be renewed. Regional restrictions also apply, so an academic role alone does not establish free availability for a particular institution or country.
