Stereology¶

class controllers.Stereology¶

Bases: handle

STEREOLOGY - @type The Stereology tool generates a grid overlay on the image and counts model material occurrences at grid intersection points to calculate surface-area fractions, exporting results to MATLAB or Excel.

Available from MIB Ribbon -> Tools -> Stereology

obj.startController('controllers.Stereology');

Constructor Summary

Stereology(mibModel, varargin)¶

STEREOLOGY - Constructor for the Stereology controller.

Syntax:

obj = Stereology(mibModel)

Input Arguments:

• mibModel - handle to MibModel

• varargin{1} - controller handle (unused, for startController compatibility)

Property Summary

listener¶

handle to the view / views.StereologyGUI

mibModel¶

view¶

handle to the MibModel

Method Summary

static ViewListner_Callback2(~, evnt)¶

VIEWLISTNER_CALLBACK2 - Guard: if the view was closed before listener cleanup, clean up and return.

Syntax:

obj.ViewListner_Callback2(src, evnt)

addCallbacks()¶

ADDCALLBACKS - Wire all widget callbacks; called once from the constructor.

Syntax:

obj.addCallbacks()

closeWindow()¶

CLOSEWINDOW - Close the Stereology window and clean up listeners.

Syntax:

obj.closeWindow()

doStereologyBtn_Callback()¶

DOSTEREOLOGYBTN_CALLBACK - Calculate stereology results from the grid mask and model.

Syntax:

obj.doStereologyBtn_Callback()

Reads grid intersection points from the mask layer, counts the model material at each intersection, and exports occurrence counts, surface fractions, and surface-area estimates to a MATLAB workspace variable or an Excel file.

generateGrid_Callback()¶

GENERATEGRID_CALLBACK - Generate a regular grid over the image and place it in the Mask layer.

Syntax:

obj.generateGrid_Callback()

The grid can be centered (even margins on all sides) or offset by user-specified values. Optionally dilated to a specified thickness. Clipped to the active ROI when one is selected.

helpBtn_Callback()¶

HELPBTN_CALLBACK - Open the stereology documentation in the default browser.

Syntax:

obj.helpBtn_Callback()

updateWidgets()¶

UPDATEWIDGETS - Refresh widget display with current pixel size information.

Syntax:

obj.updateWidgets()
