Hello, all,
I'm trying to quantitatively image Ca2+ on pancreatic beta cells with
INDO-1
using a NIKON RCM8000 confocal microscope. The first problem I met is the
shading correction. For a homogeneous sample, one side of the imaging
field always gives higher intensities than the other side on my setup. I'm
wonderring if other microscope will also have similar problems.

I tried to do the shading correction, however I still cann't get a
homegeous image after the shading correction. I will be appreciated if
anybody on the list could give me some suggestions. Thanks in advance.

Best wishes!

Weijun
