1. A method of acquiring object structures of an object, comprising:

  • projecting an illumination pattern onto an object plane where the object is located;

    detecting an object structure of the object with a microscope having a light source and a detector;

    recording image data corresponding to said object structure with said microscope;

    measuring one or more intensity profiles of said object structure during said recording, wherein said intensity profiles are described mathematically by a convolution of said illumination pattern with said object structure; and

    cross-correlating said illumination pattern and a shape of said object structure to determine said one or more intensity profiles.
