analysis

Dear All
1)How do we analyse the images of wound healing assay
(migration assay)with metamorph software.The images
are taken on the Axiovision 200M inverted microscope
in the .zvi format.
2)Can we use the same software for cell spreading
assay and how?
3)Which file format does metamorph support for
analysing images? As even the suggested 16bit tiff
images fail to open with the software sometimes.
Please suggest.
thanks
regards
Vaishali

I find using the Kymograph function (in the Stack menu) good for scratch assay analysis.  You draw a line over the 'wound' that cells are migrating to and the Kymograph provides a representation of how fast cells move along the line filling the wound.

For non-linear cell spreading an area measurement is usually easiest, you have to threshold or process the image so the cell area is distinguished from background (generating a binary image is best for this).  You can then display the growth of area covered by cells over time in Integrated Morphometry Analysis or using the Region Measurements tool.  If the images are calibrated then measure the square microns of area, otherwise it might be best to measure a % coverage.

MetaMorph opens several different formats, to find them all you can use the File - Open option and there is a drop-down at the bottom that lists Image Types.  I would suggest the 16-bit tiff images whenever you are analyzing data, but when you save the images from AxioVision (or wherever you take your images) make sure there is no compression being used.

Steve

Dear all,

    Can anyone recommend some good movie making softwares? We would want
to make movies and be able to tweak the movies using images acquired
from our confocal microscopes. Thanks for all your help in advance.

Best,
Venkat

Venkat, 

We use QuickTime Pro (US  29.99 for the Pro license last time I checked). With the Pro license, it is possible to import TIFF series or various movie formats, and convert them to Quick Time or other movie formats, with a variety of compressors, choice of frame rates, and image size.  Quite flexible and not too expensive. We often use it together with ImageJ.

If you're using Photoshop, Adobe ImageReady comes with it, I think, and is
not bad.

Hi Venkat,

If you have lots of money,
Imaris and Volocity are very good.


If you are looking for an open source free solution that you can even  
help in the development of,
try

http://www.BioimageXD.net   (mac version has some issues in movie  
making which are now fixed for the next release,
but the windows version has been working reliably in the latest  
release.)

also  imageJ  can make 3D movies, if you can write a bit of macro  
language or even Java.

cheers

Dan

If you have little money, try the mighty Rad Video tools.  It is free and lets you make movies from a series of tifs.  You can change frame rate, size, file format and compression.  The download website is http://www.radgametools.com/bnkdown.htm

Cheap and cheerful (but windows only)

Fast movie processor (FMP)- (just google it). Imports bitmaps/jpegs and
various different output formats/compressions etc.

All the ones that have been mentioned are very useful. However, for annotating movies
(drawing overlays on multiple frames, etc.) we ended up buying Adobe Premiere.
