size range in analyze particles?

Rodrigo Gonçalves
Dear all,

I need to measure particles with area bigger than 250 px2 and smaller than I want to avoid particles bigger than 30 000 000 000 px2.

So I analyze particles in the image:
run("Analyze Particles...", "size=250.00-30000000000.00 pixel show=Outlines display clear summarize add");

But in the Results window list I obtain one particle (#3) bigger than the set size(44493121880.74 px2), Also, when I select the “big” particle in the ROI and I press “measure”, I even get a different (but still bigger than desired) area: 53494241962.58 px2



What  am  I  doing  wrong?

Thanks, Rodrigo

Hi Rodrigo,

the maximum image size in ImageJ is 2^31-1 pixels = 2147483647 pixels (at least for ImageJ1)
So you can't have 30000000000.00 pixels.

If the area is in calibrated units (e.g. 30000000000 square micrometers, which is roughly 17 cm * 17 cm), the 'pixel' checkbox should be off, and the word 'pixel' should be removed from the macro command.  Calibration of such an image in millimeters might be more handy.
