Abstract

A method for applying defect correction and calibration to image data (100) in an imaging system using an area spatial light modulator (146), where a tone correction LUT (148′) is applied to the image data (100) to apply calibration correction before applying defect correction using a defect map (122) with an accompanying gain table (124). The tone correction LUT (148) is then applied to the image data in the image modulation assembly (140).
