Image processing and a major contribution on microscopy dominate the latest volume of these advances. This volume looks at theory and it's application in a practical sense, with a full account of the methods used and realistic detailed application. The authors do this by examining the latest developments, historic illustrations and mathematical fundamentals of the exciting developments in imaging and applying them to realistic practical situations. Addressing and solving daily issues faced by researchers, consultants and engineers working in this field, makes this book essential reading *Emphasizes broad and in depth article collaborations between world-renowned scientists in the field of image and electron physics *Emphasises theory and it's application in a practical sense *Provides the FIRST full statement of a radical new approach to 'phase calibration' and the solution of this important and difficult problem, pioneered by A, Lannes.
