ImageJ with Labview

Muttee Sheikh
> Hey Everyone,

Does anyone know a way to integrate ImageJ with Labview (National
Instruments)? or if you know any examples where this was done  
before....I am writing a Labview module for our multiphoton laser  
microscope and wanted to do the Image analysis and z-stacking via  
ImageJ. As the motion and image acquisition of our microscope is  
being controlled via Labview, if this image analysis part is  
integrated in Labview then we would have one module to do it all which  
is very user friendly. I know that Labview supports Active-X  
automation but the question is whether ImageJ will be able to be
controlled via Labview using Active-X or no?

I acquire ~500 images using our photon counter via Labview and want to  
stack them in the z-axis (volume rendering) via ImageJ. It would be  
good if i can get ImageJ interface in labview or open ImageJ and run  
some macros on it via labview.

Any information is highly appreciated,

Thanks,

Regards,

Hi Muttee,

I just saw your post. I too have always wondered if there a way to  
integrate these two programs. They are my favorite two programs in  
the lab and I too am currently using them separately. I've built a  
specialized microscope that uses Labview for part of the acquisition  
and I always use ImageJ for the image analysis and for writing custom  
image software. What are you using your multi-photon microscope for?  
Who do you work for and in which building? I'm in the CCBR building  
in the Biomedical Engineering department. Maybe we can get together  
and try figure out a way to do what you want.

This is an old post, but for anyone googling for a solution; I've created a plugin to ImageJ that allows ImageJ to open and control LabVIEW VIs. The plugin is called ImageJVI, and it is available at www.ImageJVI.org.

Hope it helps!
