1. A method of imaging a sample, the method comprising: (a) temporally dividing a long coherent light wave into a plurality of coherent wavelets; (b) spatially modulating the phase of each coherent wavelet a known different amount, thereby producing a plurality of modulated wavelets; (c) interacting each of said plurality of modulated wavelet, with the sample, thereby producing a plurality of perturbed wavelets; (d) creating a spatial phase map of each perturbed wavelet; (e) constructing a sample image from each perturbed wavelet spatial phase map; and (f) statistically averaging all of the sample images to produce a final averaged image of the sample.
