Fig. 2
Example of a pixelated image. Note the lower-magnification image on the left top (20×) which is within the resolution window of the original scan’s magnification which was performed with a 20× objective. In the lower left, the image is magnified to 40× which represents ‘pseudomagnification’. This is still a useable image for most applications but may not be optimal for searching, especially for small cells or objects. The image on the right is the same cell as noted by the circles on the left, digitally magnified to 300×. This magnification beyond resolution shows degradation (pixelation), leading to a ‘fuzzy’ image.
