Stochastic transfer function for structured illumination microscopy

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The stochastic transfer function extends the concept of the conventional transfer function by incorporating noise statistics, thus giving a measure of the signal-to-noise ratio at each spatial frequency. This provides a convenient and standardized metric to assess the trade-off in terms of spatial frequency bandwidth and signal-to-noise ratio for a diverse range of resolution enhancement techniques. We apply this concept to structured illumination microscopy and compare its noise performance as a function of frequency with the conventional wide-field fluorescent microscope. The result suggests how a hybrid algorithm further improves the photon efficiency of the structured illumination technique.
