RESUMO

This manuscript presents a paired dataset with experimental holograms and their corresponding reconstructed phase maps of human red blood cells (RBCs). The holographic images were recorded using an off-axis telecentric Digital Holographic Microscope (DHM). The imaging system consists of a 40 × /0.65NA infinity-corrected microscope objective (MO) lens and a tube lens (TL) with a focal distance of 200 mm, recording diffraction-limited holograms. A CMOS camera with dimensions of 1920 × 1200 pixels and a pixel pitch of 5.86 µm was located at the back focal plane of the TL lens, capturing image-plane holograms. The off-axis, telecentric, and diffraction-limited DHM system guarantees accurate quantitative phase maps. Initially comprising 300 holograms, the dataset was augmented to 36,864 instances, enabling the investigation (i.e., training and testing) of learning-based models to reconstruct aberration-free phase images from raw holograms. This dataset facilitates the training and testing of end-to-end models for quantitative phase imaging using DHM systems operating at the telecentric regime and non-telecentric DHM systems where the spherical wavefront has been compensated physically. In other words, this dataset holds promise for advancing investigations in digital holographic microscopy and computational imaging.
