1. A system comprising:
an endoscope that provides visualization to a scene within a light deficient environment, wherein the endoscope comprises:
an image sensor comprising a pixel array that is configured to generate and read out pixel data for an image based on electromagnetic radiation received by the pixel array of the image sensor, wherein the pixel array comprises a plurality of lines for reading out pixel data, and wherein a time length for reading out all the plurality of lines of pixel data in the pixel array comprises a readout period;

an emitter configured to emit electromagnetic radiation within the light deficient environment for illumination of the scene; and
an electromagnetic radiation driver configured to drive emissions by the emitter, wherein the electromagnetic radiation driver controls the emitter such that a jitter specification is between about one microsecond to about 10 percent of the readout period of the pixel array of the image sensor.
