Quantitative phase microscopies: accuracy comparison.

ABSTRACT: Quantitative phase microscopies (QPMs) play a pivotal role in bio-imaging, offering unique insights that complement fluorescence imaging. They provide essential data on mass distribution and transport, inaccessible to fluorescence techniques. Additionally, QPMs are label-free, eliminating concerns of photobleaching and phototoxicity. However, navigating through the array of available QPM techniques can be complex, making it challenging to select the most suitable one for a particular application. This tutorial review presents a thorough comparison of the main QPM techniques, focusing on their accuracy in terms of measurement precision and trueness. We focus on 8 techniques, namely digital holographic microscopy (DHM), cross-grating wavefront microscopy (CGM), which is based on QLSI (quadri
