Summary statistics output from histogram?

I need to process many stacks of images to extract basic summary statistics following the application of a threshold for each volume. This seems straightforward - so far the simplest thing seems to be to apply the threshold, create a selection, clear outside and get the stack histogram which contains exactly what I want under the chart. However, there seems to be no way to save these figures - saving as a list gives the distribution only. On the other hand, if I use 'measure stack' I get separate statistics for each plane. What am I missing here? (be gentle - I'm new at this)
