In Fiji, press CTRL + SHIFT + N (Or CMD instead of CTRL on Mac) to bring up the script editor, and copy paste the code below, then hit run. It will ask you for a file, and you should point it to your image.

The illuminations trail, which is largest light exhibit in Yorkshire, creates a memorable, atmospheric walk through the park, at Branton, Doncaster.

Another issue that the images are JPEG compressed and the JPEG artifacts are roughly the size of your cells. Those artifacts will be enhanced as well… Ideally the camera attached to the microscope can save images in an uncompressed way. This is something your group should look into if they wish to do automated quantitative analysis using that microscope.

In the case that a user would come to our facility with such data, we would be forced to refuse helping them analyze it, and would proceed to help them optimize their imaging, usually with a small batch and some quick testing before ramping up the acquisition to a full experiment.

How does a bright field microscope work

On average we are expecting it to take around 90 minutes. The trail is a one-way circular route and is approximately 2.4km, or 1.5 miles.

Alternatively, you can hire a mobility scooter for a small fee per day. Click here to book a mobility scooter. Hire is for the full day from time of collection.

Day time park entry is not included in your Winter Illuminations Ticket. You can upgrade your ticket during the checkout process to include park entry for only £10pp or £12pp on Christmas Fair dates, which includes entry to the park and fair.

Do you think the image background could somehow be improved so that the contrast could be increased without introducing artefacts? (I cannot repeat the assay so these images are all I have to work with )

Members are of course welcome to make a reservation to visit during standard daytime opening hours throughout the winter season.

I am sorry about not being able to provide you with better news, especially considering that you have 95 images to go through, but other than manually annotating the areas, I have nothing else to offer for this data.

Unfortunately I would have to agree with that remark, and unfortunately I am afraid that no amount of preprocessing is going to be able to help you. These are issues that should be adressed on the image acquisition and microscopy side.

Had a fabulous experience at the Winter Illuminations at the Yorkshire Wildlife Park.  The illuminations were brilliant, amazing - fabulous! A different array of animals, flowers and imaginary creatures. I loved it.

If all wheelchairs and mobility scooters are fully booked on the day you are attending, please ask on arrival if we have any availability, however we cannot guarantee there will be any for you to hire, so please try to book in advance where possible.

Upon booking your wheelchair/mobility scooter you will be asked to choose a 10am time slot. This is a full day reservation which can be collected at any time.

Winter Illuminations and the park will close at no later than 9pm. Please ensure you enter within your allocated time slot to ensure you have plenty of time to see all the trail.

We recommend that all tickets need to be purchased in advance; key dates will sell out very quickly, so we suggest booking sooner rather than later!

Hello. I am trying to preprocess some images for segmentation using FIJI but I am struggling due to noise, especially light artefacts. The images were obtained using a brightfield microscope. The purpose of the images is to investigate cell migration, so I am interested in the gap between the two sides rather than quantifying cell counts. I have 95 images and have outlined most of them manually, but the contrast is so poor and there is so much noise that I highly doubt the accuracy of my approach, so I would like to know if the images can be preprocessed such that I could accurately used an automated segmentation method. I have carried out a pseudo flat field correction using the BioVoxxel plugin to address the shading discrepancy in some of the images, but I am not sure what else to do. Thank you in advance for any help!

If you’re doing this visually, you can blur the image a lot using a Gaussian Filter and dividing the original image by it.

Bright-field microscopy advantages and disadvantages

Daytime park tickets purchased along with Winter Illuminations entry are valid any time from 9:45am (until final entry at 2pm) on the day of your visit. We need to clear the park prior to opening the Winter Illuminations event each evening before letting guest back in at their allocated time slot.

The Park is fully accessible for wheelchair users but please be aware that some areas may have uneven ground or be dimly lit. The full one-way circular route is flat and involves no steps or stairs.

The background itself is not a problem, it’s the lack of unique features to distinguish cells from artifacts that is lacking. Most methods would rely on enhancing edges, but considering you have about as many artifacts as you have cells, they will be equally enhanced and you’ve moved the problem down to “how to reduce the other artifacts now that the contrast is better”. It’s a Russian Dolls kind of problem…

Great New Years Eve at the park, good to see the park in different seasons The Winter Illuminations were fantastic and have recommended to friends that have now booked tickets. So worth the visit

With exciting themes from Under the Sea to a World of Fantasy, the park's light show has become a spectacular festive tradition.

As this is a special event outside our usual opening hours, tickets for the Winter Illuminations are not included with Annual Memberships.

Maybe a last comment about the data, you seem to have some horizontal bands on the images too… this may be linked to your having neon or LED lights on in the room while you acquire, and you are seeing the 50 Hz frequency of the ambien light…
