spectral imaging

A

the pixel intensity versus the center wavelength of each emission band. The accuracy of the emission spectra obtained by this technique depends largely on the number of images gathered at distinct wavelength bandwidths, the bandwidth size (shorter bandwidths yield more accurate spectra), specimen quality, and the instrument detector sensitivity. In confocal microscopes that use separate pinholes for each detector, wavelength-dependent variations can occur in optical section thickness for the different spectral channels. However, most modern instruments are designed with a single pinhole for all detectors and, in any event, probes with highly overlapping spectra are usually very similar in spectral range.
