DeconvolutionLab z-distance

jumpfunky
Hi,

I currently try to deconvolve an image stack of a macrophage captured
with dark field microscopy.

I've measured the PSF using using nanoparticles with a diameter of
150nm. I captured slices of that PSF with a z-distance of 180nm (-5µm to
5µm from the focal plane).

Now I want to use DeconvolutionLab to deconvolve my images.
Just to be sure: The image stack which has to be deconvolved also have
to provide a z-distance of 180nm? Or, to put the question in a different
way: If I want use DeconvolutionLab, the z-distance of the PSF and of
the input image have to be the equal?

Cheers,
Thorsten

Hi Thorsten

In deconvolution software the PSF and image have to eventually be the same
size with the same z-spacing so that they can be transformed to FFT space
for calculations.

In many programs this is done internally through a combination of
resampling and padding.  In deconvolutionlab I don't think it resamples the
PSF based on z voxel size.

So yes I think you would have to use a PSF and image with the same z
spacing.

If you want to capture an image with different z-spacing you could try
rescaling the PSF to match the image z spacing.
