Subject:      Volume determination (Biofilms)

Hello,

I'm a new ImageJ user (so please be gentle with me) and would like to know
if there is a function whereby one can calculate the volume (of a biofilm)
from a confocal image stack (perhaps based upon its surface plot?).  My aim
is to be able compare the 'amount' of biofilm (plaque bacteria).

I can kind of get round this by transferring surface plots from ScionImage
(via paintbrush of all things) into ImageJ and determining the mean grey
value of a section of the image.  There has to be a neater, more accurate
way of doing this!

Thanks in advance,

Chris
