PolishEM: image enhancement in FIB-SEM

A Summary: We have developed a software tool to improve the image quality in focused ion beam-scanning electron microscopy (FIB-SEM) stacks: PolishEM. Based on a Gaussian blur model, it automatically estimates and compensates for the blur affecting each individual image. It also includes correction for artifacts commonly arising in FIB-SEM (e.g. curtaining). PolishEM has been optimized for an efficient processing of huge FIB-SEM stacks on standard computers.
