Polygonal Mask


Summary

Create a polygonal mask to ease the correction step (hide labels and seeds that are not within the mask) and allow cropping the final skeletons if desired.

Selective Plane Projection


Assumptions

To create the mask the segmentation module has to be run first in order to have the cell labels.


Usage

The ui interaction is build upon the roipoly MATLAB tool. Behavior as described in the MATLAB documentation:

Use roipoly to specify a polygonal region of interest (ROI) within an image. roipoly returns a binary image that you can use as a mask for masked filtering.

With the polygon tool active, the pointer changes to cross hairs when you move the pointer over the image in the figure. Using the mouse, you specify the region by selecting vertices of the polygon. You can move or resize the polygon using the mouse.

When you are finished positioning and sizing the polygon, create the mask by double-clicking, or by right-clicking inside the region and selecting Create mask from the context menu.
