load large images

[CHEN YUAN]

Dear All


I tried to load my .tif images from microCT scan which are of 7GB roughly, it can only upload 33% of the whole images and shows a warning :   out of memory


Is there a way to load large images like this

Hi Yuan,

> Is there a way to load large images like this

Open the image as a virtual stack. There are several ways to do this. One
way is File > Import > TIFF Virtual Stack. Another possibility is to use
Bio-Formats (File > Import > Bio-Formats if using the Fiji distribution of
ImageJ; http://fiji.sc/), and check the "Use virtual stack" box in the main
options dialog box.

Regards,
Curtis

Yuan,

In ImageJ go to *Edit > Options > Memory & Threads*.  From there you can
change the amount of memory that can be allotted to ImageJ.  A good rule of
thumb (or at least what I go by) is to not set the memory limit to be more
than 75% of my computers total available RAM.  One you change this and
click OK you must restart ImageJ for the new settings to take effect.  Hope
that helps.

Cheers,
Aaron.
