Abstract: Angular scattering is used study sub-cellular structure including organelle sizes. However, organelle size estimates in single cells are often unstable due to speckle. Angular-domain scattering interferometry (ADSI) overcomes these speckle effects. ADSI recovers the full complex scattered field, which allows the application of virtual diffusers to reduce the intracellular coherence between different scatterers while leaving the signatures of individual scatterers relatively intact. By reducing the coherence between scatterers, ADSI reduces the effects of speckle and obtains stable organelle size estimates from single cells.
