Profiles of the ThermoDots recovered μaf maps along the blue dashed lines in Fig. 3(a). The profiles along the (a) x axis and (b) y axis show that the size of the fluorescent target is accurately recovered using TM-FT (red line). Conventional FT (green dotted line) is severely overestimated in size and underestimated in absorption value compared to the true value (blue dot-dashed line).
