Load Image Channel

The Load Image Channel command replaces the current image with another channel of the same image. The following steps work on the loaded channel.

Use it

  • as the first step of a pipeline without an image source (image source None in the pipeline dialog), or
  • to switch channels within a pipeline - for example a module that detects nuclei in one channel and cells in another.
ParameterDescription
ChannelThe image channel to load.

The objects, the segmentation and the memory slots of the pipeline are not touched - only the image is replaced.

  • In a module, the channel of a Load Image Channel step becomes a module parameter when the module is created, so every use of the module can pick its own channel.
  • Before an analysis starts, EVAnalyzer checks that every image has the channels the pipelines load. An image without the channel fails with a message naming the channels it does have.
  • Focus mode shows the channels a pipeline loads with this command, too.
