Hi Sharat,

I have done this in both ImageJ, NIH Image, and Scion Image.  It is
relatively straight forward if you do it manually.  You would just use the
calibration images - drawing straight segmented lines across your known
calibration grid or sphere distance - and the "Analyze -> Set Scale" menu to
calculate the calibration numbers for each zoom setting.  Then when you open
an image at a certain zoom and magnification, you would just go to that same
menu item and enter the calibration number for those settings. Then you would
just draw straight segments across your tissue structure and use the "Analyze
-> Measure" to get your measurement.
