To join, leave or search the confocal microscopy listserv, go to: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?A0=confocalmicroscopy ***** Dear List I am currently having the following problem. I ran a timelapse using the Leica SP8 software, it was a 3x3 tilescan z-stack with 100 timeframes. There was a lot of cell movement in the timelapse, and the automatic stitching in the Leica software did not do a very good job of stitching the images together. All I need is to stitch together the maximum projection of the z-stack by manually aligning them. I have tried cropping the projection into it's respective 9 parts, both in Imaris and in LAS, since it is impossible to get the single tile files from the original lif file in the Leica software. Then I have tried stitching these in XUV stitch, but the software sees the timepoints in both *.lif and *.ims files that I cropped as z-planes instead of timepoints, so I am having difficulty stitching it together. XUV stitch seemed appropriate since I can manually align the stacks, something I can't do in Metamorph, for example. If anybody has came across a similar problem and knows the solution or has any suggestions, they will be greatly appreciated.

Then you can create a stack of every single tile and later stitch all 9 tiles stacks or the projections of the stacks together. I case the LAS stitching is not good enough I usually use ImageJ.

Do you know if ImageJ will stitch together straight-up *.lif files? Which plugins do you recommend?

Do you know if ImageJ will stitch together > straight-up *.lif files? Which plugins do you recommend? The easiest way to install the most useful plugins for life sciences is to go with the Fiji distribution of ImageJ: http://fiji.sc/. (Although I am the maintainer of this software, I have no commercial benefit from it, so this is not a commercial response). Fiji includes an updater (which is actually the ImageJ2 updater) to keep you up-to-date without major hassles. Fiji includes Bio-Formats to open .lif files. There is even a way to follow the most recent Bio-Formats in case you need a recent bug fix that did not make it into a stable Bio-Formats release yet: http://fiji.sc/Bio-Formats#Daily_builds As to stitching, Fiji includes this plugin: http://fiji.sc/Stitching. I would be surprised if you could not make it do what you require... Ciao, Johannes |

Please note that all .jpeg files are good for are pretty pictures. You cannot perform scientifically sound image analysis on them. Ciao, Johannes |

Fiji seems to be the way to go, even though it's still not perfect, but definitely better then LAS was. I may still have to do some manual compiling from the *.tif files, but that's life I guess :) Thanks very much again, Yevgeniy ________________________________________ From: Confocal Microscopy List [[hidden email]] on behalf of Johannes Schindelin [[hidden email]] Sent: Monday, September 23, 2013 1:18 PM To: [hidden email] Subject: Re: manual stitching problem ***** To join, leave or search the confocal microscopy listserv, go to: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?A0=confocalmicroscopy ***** Hi Joel, On Mon, 23 Sep 2013, JOEL B.

Of course, and I made the point that the stitching worked only with jpegs. Nevertheless, if one is trying to generate a low magnification image without quantitation, this sort of program can be useful, If you are not familiar with it, it also does a fair amount of warping to make things fit. Again, useful for a general impression, but not even for quantitative measurement.
