Hi Everybody,
I'm new to ImageJ and I would like to register a large number of coronal brain slices from a rat. I tried using StackReg to do this, however after running the plugin, the images were definitely NOT registered. I believe this is due to the fact that unlike turboReg, it never allowed me to manually set the reference points on the reference image. I am not sure how to make this work. Does anyone have any advice? Please?
Thanks and have a great week,
Claire

Hello,

I'd like to use StackReg plugin to align a stack of images.
I downloaded TurboReg plugin as written in the website of StackReg, and followed the user manual. Following sentences are quotation from the website, which I don't know how to do it.
---------------
The present plugin (StackReg) is used as a front-end to another plugin named TurboReg. Several mechanisms are at work to exchange data between these plugins. One of them involves temporary files which are written into the temporary directory that ImageJ defines. The location of this directory can be examined by issuing the macro command 'print(getDirectory("temp"));'.  The names of the written files are

    * StackRegSource
    * StackRegSourceR
    * StackRegSourceG
    * StackRegSourceB
    * StackRegTarget

Warning: existing files of the same name in the temporary directory may be silently overwritten.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
