What happens when I am looking at objects smaller than the ProFlex resolution?
The quality of images of such resolution depends on the type of ProFlex in use. With the HD-series ProFlex, objects smaller than its resolution will appear at the size of its resolution. With the S-series ProFlex, objects smaller than the inter-core distance of the ProFlex flexible imaging microprobe, could blink when moving across the field of view. This occurs because the same object is picked up by different fibers that are adjacent to each other. The object will be seen at the current resolution, but with varying intensities. Quantitative analysis should not be performed on such objects.
