My lab deals heavily with multi-channel LSM files from a Zeiss LSM 710. I love being able to import them into Omero and playing with them, but there is one thing that bothers me. It would be of great benefit for us to be able to label the channels with the associated antibody names in Omero. For instance, I'd like to be able to see these edited channel names in the Image Viewer. I've looked around the client and your forums to find something, and I haven't really seen a straight answer.
I can imagine that one possible solution would be to save all the channels as individual TIFFs, then re-import and combine using your CombineImages script (and adding channel names there), but we will be importing a large number of images and the time/resources needed for that wouldn't be feasible.
I'm not at all familiar with Python, but I suppose I could start looking in to writing a script for this if need be. If anyone has an easier answer, though, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Thanks!
