Description

Analyzing Ca2+ sparks

ImageJ plugin to detect and measure Ca2+ sparks in linescan images, described in Picht et. al. (2007). The algorithm is based on that described by Cheng et al. (1999). Care should be taken to ensure that detections belong to 'true' events, as without any additional background subtraction steps the algorithm is not appropriate for images in which the baseline fluorescence varies substantially.
