Figure 2. Full-field versus scanning Zernike phase contrast.

Figure 2

Reading the image from left to right describes the full-field imaging case, whereas the scanning case is represented from right to left. Both microscopes are mathematically equivalent and produce the same images if the angles indicated are matched respectively10.
