You could try a shell script that used the "open" command

do shell script "open /path/imageJ"

don't forget to add the ".app" to imageJ if it is needed.

You could also try to use the open command to open a specific file with
imageJ if thsi is what you are after:

do shell script "open -a imageJ /path/to/your/file"

Hope this helps,
