Abstract

A method includes sequentially acquiring phase-shifted images of an optical source in a plurality of predetermined positions in the z plane to form a plurality of image frame sequences; determining from the plurality of image frame sequences at least one phase-related characteristic associated with each predetermined position of the optical source in the z plane; and storing the at least one phase-related characteristic and the predetermined positions of the optical source in the z plane.
