Abstract
A method and apparatus for the detection and quantification of very low levels of a target analyte using an imaging system is provided. In the case of some analytes such as certain hormones, for example TSH, their levels may be as low as several tens of thousands of molecules per micro liter. These extremely low levels can be measured by using the present invention to count the individual molecules of analyte. The invention also has the advantage of being a primary quantitative method, which is one which needs no standardization.
