 * Open image: xy_8bit__nuclei_noisy_different_intensity.tif
 * Explore different ways to inspect pixel values and indices
 * Check where the lowest pixel indices are in the displayed image:
         * Most commonly: Upper left corner, which is different to conventional coordinate systems.

 * Explore how image calibration affects spatial measurements, e.g.,
   * Measure the distance between two pixels in the image
   * Measure the size of an image region

-True or false?
-
-* The lowest pixel index of a 2D image always is `[1,1]`.
-* When looking at a 2D image, the lowest pixel indices are always in the lower left corner.

+  - Examine the values of pixels in an image. 
+
+motivation: >
+  Images are very often composed of pixels. Pixel stands for "picture element". In 3-D, a pixel is sometimes also called a voxel, which stands for "volume element". 
+  To analyse images it is very important to know how to examine the pixels (voxels) in an image.
