Phases of Localization

Analysis of localization microscopy data occurs in the following four phases:

singleProc.gif Localization Phase - Identify and localize fluorophores within the acquired data.

singleProc.gif Correction Phase – Correct fluorophore positions to account for lateral stage drift during data acquisition. Drift is measured using an image correlation algorithm and does not require the use of fiducial markers.

singleProc.gif Tracking Phase - Track fluorophores that appear in more than one frame. This phase can also be used to remove lateral drift by tracking fiducial markers.

singleProc.gif Reconstruction Phase - Generate a super-resolution DeltaVision image.

The tools for setting up each of these phases are available in the Localization Image Analysis window.
