| History: |
This plugin was implemented in August 2012 |
| Works with: |
32-bit color images STACK |
| ImageJ's version: |
1.46r (used to develop this plugin) |
| Source: |
AvgNoiseRmvr_.java |
| Installation: |
Download AvgNoiseRmvr_.java to the plugins
folder.
2)"Compile and run" from "plugin" menu.
3)Restart ImageJ to add the "AvgNoiseRmvr" command to the Plugins menu.
*Download and install StackReg and TurboReg plugins if you want
to align input images.
|
| Description: |
This plugin calculates the average value of each pixel of
the images of the stack. It can also align the images of the stack with
StackReg and there are
options to enhance contrast and brightness of the output.
|
| Usage: |
Here is a brief description:
1) Create a stack of images (i.e. by using the "Import"->"image
sequence..." in "File" menu.
2) Run plugin from plugins menu.
3) Choose if you want to align stack images (StackReg plugin needed!) and
show an histogram. Clicking ok will output the averaged image.
4) You are now given the option to enhance contrast and brighten the output
image.
5) Once you have obtained the enhanced output you may choose to repeat this
step with different values, before proceeding.
6) Finally you will be given the opportunity to generate a HTML report of the
process.
|
| Options: |
ALIGN : The images in the stack are aligned using the
StackReg plugin.
HISTOGRAM : Generate the histogram relative to the current output
image.
ENHANCE CONTRAST : Enhance the contrast of the average image using the
sigmoid function.
WINDOW RADIUS : Set the radius of the window of values that will be
expanded.
WINDOW CENTER : Set the center of the contrast enhancing window.
BRIGHTEN : Enabling this option will boost the value of each pixels by 55
(capped at 255).
REPORT : Generate a HTML report of the entire process.
