Extended Data Fig. 5: Quantitative comparison of Slit Confocal Airy LS and standard Airy LS.

(a, b) Quantification of image contrast (or signal-to-noise ratio, SNR) for somata (a) and neurites (b) imaged with either Slit Confocal Airy LS or standard Airy LS. For this comparison, laser powers were adjusted to achieve the same maximum noise intensity across modalities.
