Crosshair

Assisted targeting with an ultramicrotome

Installation

Crosshair is a Fiji plugin for targeted ultramicrotomy via 3D image data (e.g. micro-CT data).

Install imageJ, or update your existing version

If you haven't used Fiji/ImageJ before - you can download it from the ImageJ website.
If you're using an existing Fiji installation, make sure it is up to date!
Go to Help > Update... in the imagej menu, and select Apply Changes.

Add the Crosshair update site

Go to Help > Update... in the imagej menu, and select Manage update sites.
In the new window that pops up, select Add Unlisted Site. This will create a new row in the table.
Fill this row out so it looks like below:
