Correlative Microscopy for 3D Structural Analysis of Dynamic Interactions
Published on: June 24, 2013
Abstract:
We present three-dimensional tomographic images of the absorption coefficient that is due to the presence of a fluorophore reconstructed from frequency domain fluence measurements of a tissue phantom containing a single, fluorescence contrast-enhanced inclusion. We show that such a reconstruction may be improved when the importance of measurement error correlations between relative phase shift and amplitude is assessed and when measurements are preprocessed to reduce the magnitude and the bias of system error.

Computed Tomography
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...
