What Does PSF Stand For?
PSF stands for Point Spread Function
The Point Spread Function (PSF) describes the response of an imaging system to a point source or point object. It characterizes the distortion and spread of light or signal from a perfectly focused point, providing insight into the system's resolution and optical performance. PSFs are essential in various fields, including imaging science, optics, and medical imaging, as they help in understanding and correcting for blurring and enhancing image quality.
