How to Apply Thresholds of One Stack to Another?

51 posts
Dear Group,

how does one apply thresholds or selections from one stack to another? I am
trying to use a fluorescence signal at one wavelength to identify which
cells in a field of view are transfected, but cannot figure out how to
apply this over time in a stack. Ideally, this fluorescence channel could
be thresholded for all time points in the long time-lapse dataset (as much
as ~8000 frames), then applied to the other channels.

A related question is how to make moving ROIs over the course of an
experiment? I have seen that there are many programs for tracking cells,
but I have not found one that cares about quantifying the intensity in the
tracked entity. Seems like this task (tracking a set of cells while
quantifying their intensities) should be easy and common enough, but I have
not yet figured it out--can anyone point me in the right direction?

All the best,

Jacob Keller

Hi Jacob,

see 2.7 Secondary Measurement in

http://cmci.embl.de/documents/ijcourses#macro_programming_in_imagej

It explains how to use object tracking results to do intensity measurements
over time.

Cheers,
Kota
