Diameter statistics for the sample with filaments

Particle Picking
1

Dear colleagues,

We work with the sample that contains a lot of filaments (helices).

I wounder is there an option to find our the diameter distribution of them?
Can the information about diameter distribution be obtained from the filament tracer?
Or does anyone know the way to calculate the diameter distribution of the filaments in the sample in automatic way?

Thank you in advance.

Sincerely,
Dmitry

Hi @Dmitry,

Thanks for the interesting post. The filament picking procedure unfortunately doesn’t estimate filament diameters. I’ll defer to other forum users regarding other methods of filament diameter estimation from micrographs.

Best,
Michael
