plugins for flat field correction

Hi all,
I have two questions:

1) Is there a plugin for flat field correction?
2) I am looking at axonal transport in a system of nerves, in vivo. The
axons in solution are quite squiggly and hence not very easy to analyze for
particle movement. I want to select each axon by making line ROI. Then,
using the intensity values along the axon reconstruct the image so that
there are straight lines representing the axon. This would then be useful
for tracking the movement of particles along the straight lines. Is
there some plugin that could do this?

Thanks in advance,
Aparna

Hi Aparna,

For flat-field correction, there are a number of options available, see here :

As regards straightening, ImageJ now has a Edit>Selection>Strtaighten
command that straighten any line selection, see here :

you need to upgrade to 1.41i or 1.41j to get this fucntion.
I don't know it will straighten a whole stack, but Eva Kocsis'
original plugin does it :

Just a remark : if you wnat to measure movement along a straightened
trajectory, why not use a kymograph ? see here :

Cheers,

Christophe Leterrier
