You are going to need to calibrate your sections. Read the calibration chapter in the manual for more info. If you don't have a scale bar or grid to...
I don't use Photoshop much but I use other similar programs. What you want to do is often called "batch processing." A Google search for "Photoshop" and...
Hi, I was recently introduced to this really great program, and was attempting to use it to do some traces from muticolor (3 channels) confocal stacks using...
Hello, I'm a new user with this great program, and recently ran into a problem. In dealing with the thickness of my TEM sections, I noticed some parts are...
Jean, Thanks for pointing out the limitation on the Hue parameter. I'll look into implementing a solution. Originally, I used RGB parameters but it was very...
Shannon, No. When using serial sections you should rely on the fact that any thinning in one part of one section will be offset by a corresponding (after...
Also Shannon, how are you estimating section thickness? Are you using the cylindrical diameters method? If not, you may want to read the following paper - pdf...
