What are the advantages of static image analysis?

In static image analysis, particles are fixed using a microscape slide, and the stage that holds the slide, which can be modified manually or programmed automatically to search for an optimal location so that the particles can be clearly captured.

Static image analysis is characterized by its cost-efficiency and clear image. Besides, more particles can be clearly captured at high magnification compared to other techniques. The reason is that the particles are all fixed on the focal plane, which avoids the consideration of the depth of field.
