Deploying pixelium with Cloudflare Pages

Isn't the term for pixel size in microscopy "resolution"? It's also the term used when scanning documents for example (but expressed in different units) |
I don't think we should rename the property of the resolution because resolution refers to the capacity of the instrument and it not related to the pixel size: https://www.nanoscience.com/blogs/understanding-the-difference-between-magnification-and-resolution-in-scanning-electron-microscopy/ |
Do you have another term in mind? Because it would be good to find a term that is not tied to a specific unit. For images scanned with a digital scanner, the property would be defined in DPI and not in distance / px. |
It can be converted to DPI internally if you want but this value will not speak to the scientist. At the end the annotations of the ROIs should be in 'nm' or 'nm^2' for surfaces for example. Very often there is a scale on the image as well so this calculation of the DPI can be done by drawing a line but this will require some developments. |
I don't "want" to use DPI, but someone might happen to know that an image has a certain resolution in DPI, and not in any other unit and does not have a reference on the image. We can imagine that in the future we can enter this field in any units that best fits the use case, and then pixelium can convert it, not the other way around. Maybe use "pixel density" instead of "pixel size"? |
