ImageJ is another open-source Java program for processing medical images. Many medical imaging packages (specifically those dedicated to microscopy) have extended ImageJ plug-ins. MIPAV can now run ImageJ plugins and convert MIPAV images in formats supported by ImageJ.

Launching ImageJ from MIPAV

The MIPAV ImageJ toolbar

To launch ImageJ,

  1. Open a MIPAV image which you would like to process using ImageJ;
  2. On the ImageJ toolbar that appears, you will see 3 ImageJ icons;
  3. Click the Launch ImageJ icon. The ImageJ window appears.

Converting a MIPAV image to an ImageJ image

To convert a MIPAV image to an ImageJ image,

  1. Open a MIPAV image of interest;
  2. On the MIPAV ImageJ toolbar, click the Convert MIPAV image to ImageJ image icon. The ImageJ window appears.
  3. Press OK to proceed with conversion.

Note: Your MIPAV image should be either UBYTE, USHORT, FLOAT or ARGB, in order to be converted to the ImageJ image. If it is not, the message window appears suggesting the conversion. In order to convert the MIPAV image to one of these types, go to Utilities > Convert Type and use the conversion options offered by the Convert Image Type dialog box. See also, Standard tasks provided through commands on the Utilities menu.

Converting an ImageJ image to a MIPAV image

To convert an ImageJ image to MIPAV image,

  1. have your ImageJ image of interest open;
  2. Make it an active MIPAV Image A image. An active image is the image that has a red frame around it. In order to make your image the active one, just click on it.
  3. On the MIPAV ImageJ toolbar, click the Convert ImageJ image to MIPAV image icon. The converted image appears in a new window.
  4. Now, you can save it as a MIPAV image.
