Abstract :
We demonstrate superresolved, wide-field, reflectance imaging using synthetic-aperture Fourier holography. By applying a correlation scheme applicable to scattering samples, we show coherent synthesis of large numbers of holograms into reflectance images of, for the first time, tissue sections.
