Distance_Between_Minima_Tool - MontpellierRessourcesImagerie/imagej_macros_and_scripts GitHub Wiki
The tool measures the mean distance between the minima in the profile plot.
Getting Started
To install the tool save the file Distance_Between_Minima_Tool.ijm under macros/toolsets in your FIJI installation.
Select the Distance_Between_Minima_Tool from the >> button of the ImageJ launcher.
Usage
Make a line-selection on the image covering a repetitive structure. Set the line-width of the line selection to cover the width of the structure of interest to smooth the plot. Right-click on the tool-button and adjust the tolerance-option to ignore small local minima. Press the tool-button to measure the mean distance between the minima.
Options
- tolerance - the minimum difference needed to separate two minima
- remove edge minima - if checked minima at the beginning and the end of the selection are excluded
- show plot - if checked the profile plot with the detected minima is shown
