TIRF images camera background subtraction

emoryrao
I have recently been advised that I should perform a camera background subtraction on my images from TIRF microscopy. Can someone explain to me why is it important? the reason I ask this is I am already performing a background subtraction. Why should I subtract a constant value for the camera in addition to the background in general. Would it be accurate?
