Hi Joost,

You could try applying a 'tubeness filter' to the image prior to thresholding (try Fiji -> Plugins -> Analyze -> Tubeness). This can help to separate lines of variable intensity from background. Alternatively, a local thresholding method might be useful.
As Herbie said, a sample image would be useful.

Good day Joost,

an typical image would be helpful...

Did you try to highpass filter the image?
