Depth-dependent PSF calibration and aberration correction for 3D single-molecule localization
Three-dimensional single molecule localization microscopy relies on the fitting of the individual molecules with a point spread function (PSF) model. The reconstructed images often show local squeezing or expansion in z. A common cause is depth-induced aberrations in conjunction with an imperfect PS...

| Summary: | Three-dimensional single molecule localization microscopy relies on the fitting of the individual molecules with a point spread function (PSF) model. The reconstructed images often show local squeezing or expansion in z. A common cause is depth-induced aberrations in conjunction with an imperfect PSF model calibrated from beads on a coverslip, resulting in a mismatch between measured PSF and real PSF. Here, we developed a strategy for accurate z-localization in which we use the imperfect PSF model for fitting, determine the fitting errors and correct for them in a post-processing step. We present an open-source software tool and a simple experimental calibration procedure that allow retrieving accurate z-positions in any PSF engineering approach or fitting modality, even at large imaging depths. |
