Item _em_3d_reconstruction.resolution_method_details

Description

    The  method used to determine the final resolution 
     of the 3d reconstruction.
     The Fourier Shell Correlation criterion as a measure of
     resolution is based on the concept of splitting the (2D)
     data set into two halves; averaging each and comparing them
     using the Fourier Ring Correlation (FRC) technique.
