AZtecLive In Depth: TruMap

TruMap is a revolutionary way to collect and display mapping data with all the speed of traditional mapping and spectrum processing power of Tru-Q^® in real time. TruMap displays the real variation of X-rays from the elements in the specimen if you are used to using traditional digital mapping the results may surprise you.

With TruMap in AZtec, Oxford Instruments has developed an algorithm for peak deconvolution and background removal that is fast enough to work in real-time, calculating maps in seconds during or after the acquisition. Using the Tru-Q data processing technology including FLS and QCAL, it also uniquely works on low and high count datasets without bias. This means a true picture of the elements in the sample is displayed with little or no trade-off in time or resolution.
