Abstract

An apparatus, system, and method for increasing measurement accuracy in imaging cytometry. The system may include a light detector configured to measure light emitted by a particle in response to a first light source, and processor coupled to the light detector. The processor may be configured create a first image by taking a first measurement of light and create a second image by interpolating the first image, where the second image has higher resolution than the first image. The processor may be configured to determine a difference between pixels of the second image and an expected distribution and discard the first measurement of light if the difference is above a predetermined threshold.
