Runa,

I suppose that you should be able to use it. But I believe that
iterative deconvulution is a blind deconvolution method. It will do you
better if you read a few papers to understand this method and decide how
you want to use it. In addition, you can always ask the authors who
wrote this plugin for more information.

Best,

Dear Zhengyu,
Thank you for the suggestions!

There is a plugin ' Iterative deconvolution' available in image J. Can I
use it for deconvoluting my time lapse images? I am slightly confused
how do I decide upon the last four options in this window.
