nImage at work: An example

The following example shows a nImage extraction on a stack of images through the calyx of the locust, schistocerca americana, where one kenyon cell has been filled with the fluorescent dye alexa fluor.



(a)
A ray-projected image from a stack of 300 raw images.
The filled cell is not visible through background autofluorescence of brain structures.




(b)
Seed pixel is indicated by red arrow



(c)


(d)
nImage-chosen 'hot' pixels are superimposed on image shown in (a), to illustrate the algorithm's progress



(e)
A ray-projected image from the same stack of images as in (a), after processing with nImage
