I was using Enhance Contrast with equalization based on the volume histogram of the entire stack to enhance PSF volumes collected on the confocal and then resample in Z and I noticed that the images looked much noisier with brighter backgrounds above and below the brightest parts of the cones. So I made a stack of ramp images and put white spots over different parts of the grayscale in each slice and tried the Enhance Contrast with equalization based on the volume histogram on this. Each slice was adjusted based on its own histogram, not the histogram of the entire volume. Both 8 and 16 bits in versions 1.46e and 1.46f 64 bit Java 1.6.0_12 on Windows7.

Dear Imagers,
I was wondering whether anybody else has checked whether the "Use Stack Histogram" checkbox in the "Enhance Contrast" function as described at http://rsbweb.nih.gov/ij/docs/guide/userguide-26.html sec 26.5 is working correctly. We'd very much like to know if this is broken or whether we've been doing something wrong and should be doing the equalization of entire stacks some other way.

This bug is fixed in the ImageJ 1.46g daily build. -wayne |
