Neurite Tracer Algorithm for F-actin Skeleton Mask #58

Closed JEBrunsveld closed 4 years ago

JEBrunsveld commented 4 years ago

Hello Everyone,

I'm new here so let me introduce myself first. My name is Jesse and I'm a research technician at UMC Utrecht in the Netherlands. My goal is to learn some basic coding (Python and ImageJ macro) in relation to automated image analyses; I'm very new at this. My current challenge is an automated object/cell count on this image (and many more). Image1.

First I want to create a clean F-actin skeleton and use it for counting objects. I was experimenting with gaussian blur, tubeness and thresholding etc. with some quite good results. I discovered the simple neurite tracer and I'm convinced this will give me the best F-actin skeleton if I'm able to create a mask and have to click once... So this is my question: Is it possible for me to write a macro where it traces all F-actin lines and creates a mask without clicking? I know this is not neurite related but this will help me a lot with my macro. It would be much appreciated if someone can help me with this or point me in the right direction!

Thanks and best regards,

Jesse

I see. Thanks for the reply! I'll post my question over there.
