Fast optical sectioning obtained by structured illumination microscopy using a digital mirror device.

چکیده
High-throughput optical imaging is critical to obtain large-scale neural connectivity information of brain in neuroscience. Using a digital mirror device and a scientific complementary metal-oxide semiconductor camera, we report a significant speed improvement of structured illumination microscopy (SIM), which produces a maximum SIM net frame rate of 133 Hz. We perform three-dimensional (3-D) imaging of mouse brain slices at diffraction-limited resolution and demonstrate the fast 3-D imaging capability to a large sample with an imaging rate of 6.9×10(7) pixel/s of our system, an order of magnitude faster than previously reported.

DMD-based LED-illumination Super-resolution and optical sectioning microscopy
Super-resolution three-dimensional (3D) optical microscopy has incomparable advantages over other high-resolution microscopic technologies, such as electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy, in the study of biological molecules, pathways and events in live cells and tissues. We present a novel approach of structured illumination microscopy (SIM) by using a digital micromirror device (DMD)...
متن کاملImage formation in structured illumination wide-field fluorescence microscopy.
We present a theoretical analysis of the image formation in structured illumination wide-field fluorescence microscopy (SIWFFM). We show that the optically sectioned images obtained with this approach possess the optical sectioning strengths comparable to those obtained with the confocal microscope. We further show that the transfer function behaviour is directly comparable to that of the true ...
متن کاملFluorescence sectioning with dynamic speckle illumination microscopy
We present a novel fluorescence microscopy technique that provides depth sectioning in thick tissue. The technique relies on dynamic speckle illumination, and depth sectioning is obtained from an a priori knowledge of speckle statistics. We demonstrate nearconfocal imaging in a mouse brain labeled with green fluorescent protein. Confocal microscopy [1] is a popular technique in the bioimaging c...

In merits of super-resolved resolution and fast speed of three-dimensional (3D) optical sectioning capability, structured illumination microscopy (SIM) has found variety of applications in biomedical imaging. So far, most SIM systems use monochrome CCD or CMOS cameras to acquire images and discard the natural color information of the specimens. Although multicolor integration scheme are employe...
متن کاملSpectrally encoded photoacoustic microscopy using a digital mirror device.
We have developed spectrally encoded photoacoustic microscopy using a digital mirror device for multi-wavelength tomography, which enables fast spectral imaging of optical absorption. The optical illumination wavelengths are multiplexed at a laser pulse repetition rate of ≈ 2 kHz. Liquid samples, whole blood, and blood vessels in mouse ears were imaged. Compared with internal wavelength tuning ...
