What operating system do you want this software to run on?  If you would
like software running under the Mac O/S, I would highly recommend NIH Image
(that's National Institute of Health).  It is a very good lab-environment
oriented image analysis package (as opposed to a remote sensing oriented or
graphics oriented package).  (It's also freeware.)

I don't know of packages for Windows ... but that's just because of my OS
preference.  Look for an image analysis package that is designed for
medical or other lab-oriented applications.
