The X-ray fluorescence data from X-ray microprobe and nanoprobe measurements must be fitted to obtain reliable elemental maps. The most common approach in many fitting programs is to initially remove a per-pixel baseline. Using X-ray fluorescence data of yeast and glial cells, it is shown that per-pixel baselines can result in significant, systematic errors in quantitation and that significantly improved data can be obtained by calculating an average blank spectrum and subtracting this from each pixel.
