QuPath is an open-source desktop application for bioimage analysis, aimed especially at digital pathology and whole-slide imaging. It provides annotation tools, cell segmentation, interactive machine learning classification, and scripting for batch processing and integration with tools like ImageJ.

Use cases

  • analyze whole slide images from digital pathology scans
  • segment and count cells in microscopy images
  • train interactive classifiers to label tissue regions
  • dearray tissue microarrays automatically
  • batch-process large sets of bioimages with Groovy scripts
  • view and annotate large whole-slide images
  • integrate image analysis workflows with ImageJ

When to choose

  • you need to analyze histology or pathology whole-slide images
  • you want an interactive GUI for annotating and classifying bioimages
  • you need cell segmentation or tissue microarray analysis out of the box
  • you want scriptable, reproducible bioimage analysis workflows

When to avoid

  • you need a headless server-side image pipeline rather than a desktop GUI
  • your images are not biological/medical microscopy images
  • you require a permissive license for commercial use (GPLv3, research-use intent)
  • you need general-purpose photo editing rather than scientific image analysis
