TLDR
In this paper, the acquisition and use of digital images in a wide variety of scientific fields is discussed. But the focus is on high dynamic range imaging in more than two dimensions.
Abstract
"This guide clearly explains the acquisition and use of digital images in a wide variety of scientific fields. This sixth edition features new sections on selecting a camera with resolution appropriate for use on light microscopes, on the ability of current cameras to capture raw images with high dynamic range, and on imaging in more than two dimensions. It discusses Dmax for X-ray images and combining images with different exposure settings to further extend the dynamic range. This edition also includes a new chapter on shape measurements, a review of new developments in image file searching, and a wide range of new examples and diagrams"

An image processing method for morphology characterization and pitting corrosion evaluation

TL;DR: In this article, a digital image processing and analysis method was developed to classify shape and evaluate size and morphology parameters of corrosion pits, which seems to be effective to analyze surfaces with low or high degree of pitting formation.

Automated classification of wear particles based on their surface texture and shape features

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used an automated classification system to classify wear particles, and the results showed that the texture-based classification system was a more efficient and accurate way of distinguishing between various wear particles than classification based on size and shape of wear particles.

Imaging properties and applications of slow-scan charge-coupled device cameras suitable for electron microscopy

TL;DR: In this paper, the basic operation and important imaging characteristics of slow-scan charge-coupled device (CCD) cameras suitable for electron microscopy are reviewed, showing that these image detectors approach single electron detection, have high dynamic range, exceptional linearity, negligible distortion and excellent spectral transfer characteristics.

Texture Analysis of X-Ray Radiographs Is a More Reliable Descriptor of Bone Loss Than Mineral Content in a Rat Model of Localized Disuse Induced by the Clostridium botulinum Toxin

TL;DR: Bone mineral content was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry on the femur and tibia and the texture of the trabecular bone was analyzed by run length and fractal methods (skyscrapers and blanket).

Appendixes to NCHRP Report 555: Test Methods for Characterizing Aggregate Shape, Texture, and Angularity

TL;DR: The test method measures shape, texture, and angularity characteristics of aggregates used in hot-mix asphalt, hydraulic cement concrete, and unbound base and subbase layers of highway pavements, and it is appropriate for use in central and field laboratories.
