Abstract: A method to, is provided for collecting an image from a sample. The method includes selecting a radiation level for a first probe to meet a desired radiation dosage, and providing, with the first probe, a radiation at a selected point within a region of the sample. The method includes identifying a second selected point within the region of the sample based on a down sampling scheme, and providing a second radiation amount at the second selected point within the region of the sample. The method also includes interpolating a first datum and a second datum based on an up sampling scheme to obtain a plurality of data, and forming an image of the region of the sample with the plurality of data. A system to perform the above method and including the first probe is also provided.
