Except for a few stray pixels, this may solve the problem.


  // The next two steps fill in the missing pixels on the left side of the kymogram
  makeRectangle(112, 52, 12, 2);
  run("Set...", "value=0");

  //  Here is the macro which only works if the left and right waves are solid
  //  Counts pixels of value 255 in single pixel high box from top to bottom of image
  w = getWidth();
  doWand(1,1);
  run("Set...", "value=0");
  doWand(w-1, 1);
  run("Set...", "value=0");

  print("\n" + getTitle());
  for (i=0; i<getHeight; i++) {
    makeRectangle(0,i, w,1);
    getHistogram(values, counts, 256);
    print(counts[255]);
  } // for i

Subject: measuring the running width of a kymograph 'object'

Hello,

I have a kymograph of a transect through beating heart muscle measured
using light sheet fluorescence.  I would like to graph 'strain' and
'strain rate' over time, reflecting the distance and rate of movement of
the inner wall of the ventricle of interest.  That would require measuring
the horizontal dimension of the inner thresholded 'object' in the attached
kymograph from top to bottom in 500 steps.  Does anyone know of a way to
do this in ImageJ/Fiji?  Apologies if this has come up before and I just
failed to find it.

Many thanks,


Tim
