Hi,

I know this plugin is not very fast, but you can use the maximum filter
in my fast JNI filter and compute the difference between the original
and max filtered image, a max local should then be at zero in this
difference image. Here a small macro that uses 3D object counter to
detect the max local pixels and display their coordinates :

rename("stack");
// this may have changed fro mthe version o nthe internet ;-)
run("3D Filters", "filter=Maximum radius_x=5 radius_y=5 radius_z=5");
imageCalculator("Difference create stack", "stack","3D Maximum");
run("Invert", "stack");
run("Set 3D Measurements", "  centroid mean_gray_value dots_size=16
font_size=10
store_results_within_a_table_named_after_the_image_(macro_friendly)
redirect_to=stack");
run("3D Objects Counter...", "threshold=255 slice=13 min.=1 max.=1134972
exclude_objects_on_edges statistics");

The 3D filters in fiji are nice and fast, but it looks like they work on
a 3x3x3 cube, I personally prefer to work with spheres.

best,


Thomas
