c++ or java for biomedical applications???

I have the choice of pursuing java or c++. What I wanna do is biomedical imaging and signal processing. visualization in 2D and 3D. I don't want to deal with hardware, i just want to develop applications and software that have user interfaces and that can be used for analysis. I will be working with Matlab too. Please help!

First, Java is nowhere near a dying language. That is just completely wrong.

Secondly, when asking yourself about development between Java VS C++ the main thing you need to consider is performance. C++ is still faster than Java, but the speed of applications is more dependent on the skill of the programmer and not so much the underlying language. It is possible to write poorly performing code, no matter what language you are using, and Java is fast enough for most things. Furthermore, you should always use the highest level language that will accomplish your goals given your performance constraints. I'm not advocating Java persay, but it and C# or more suitable for a large number of tasks. In fact, you shouldn't limit yourself to just C++/Java. Take a look at Python, which has some decent graphical libraries.

I wouldn't disregard what the second answerer said, but I would also take it with a grain of salt, as it's not likely that any 1 person's perspetive is indicative of an entire industry.
