4.1 Introduction: Why Measure Specimen-Induced
Aberration?
e ultimate goal is to design a microscope that fully corrects aberrations and thus can deliver optimum
performance and diraction-limited imaging in confocal microscopy. is requires knowledge about
the nature of aberrations encountered under conditions found in biomedical imaging.
Before we start the design of an adaptive optics system, we need to address the following
questions:
• What type and amount of the specimen-induced aberration do we have to expect from typical
biological specimen?
• How many Zernike modes do we need to correct to reduce aberrations to an acc ...
