Abstract
Fast imaging over large volumes can be obtained in a simple manner with extended-depth-of-field (EDOF) microscopy. A standard technique of Wiener deconvolution can correct for the blurring inherent in EDOF images. We compare Wiener deconvolution with an alternative, parameter-free technique based on the dual reconstruction of fluorescence and absorption layers in a sample. This alternative technique provides significantly enhanced reconstruction contrast owing to a quadratic positivity constraint that intrinsically favors sparse solutions. We demonstrate the advantages of this technique with mouse neuronal images acquired in vivo.
