Is the term "stack" in Image J translatable to that as used in
confocal or digital deconvolution microscopy?  I am struggling with
an assertion that processing of "stacks" in Image J was used to
analyze height of a feature.  Perhaps in this case the phrase
"collecting stacks of images" refers to a group of images collected
in x-y?  This is my current understanding of the term "stack" as used
in Image J - a series of related images that needn't necessarily
represent any one particular field-of-view.
