Digital Image Processing Part 2: Advanced Image Processing Filter

In our first webinar on this topic, we learned that images taken with a light microscope are never quite a perfect representation of our samples. There are always sources of error, and as we can only minimize such errors, not eliminate them, the raw data of an imaging experiment will often need some digital image processing before final image analysis.

In our second webinar on this topic, we’ll introduce and demonstrate advanced digital image processing techniques such as deconvolution, provide an overview of image analysis, and offer some useful tips and tricks.

Webinar FAQs | Digital image processing part 2

Are high pass and low pass always performed on a transformed image?

Yes—there will always be a Fourier transformation in the background because you can only distinguish between high and low frequencies when you are in the frequency domain.
