Efficient second-harmonic imaging of collagen in histological slides using Bessel beam excitation
Second-harmonic generation (SHG) is the most specific label-free indicator of collagen accumulation in widespread pathologies such as fibrosis, and SHG-based measurements hold important potential for biomedical analyses. However, efficient collagen SHG scoring in histological slides is hampered by the limited depth-of-field of usual nonlinear microscopes relying on focused Gaussian beam excitat...
متن کاملNon-linear propagation of limited diffraction beams
Recently, harmonic imaging has been shown to increase image quality in medical imaging. This is believed to be caused by decreased sidelobes. It is also due to a decreased sensitivity to near-field aberrations owing to the lower transmission frequency, and the lower relative amplitude of the second harmonic in the near-field. One of the problems of limited diffraction beams has been the sidelob...
متن کاملSecond harmonic generation imaging via nonlinear endomicroscopy.
A compact endomicroscope is the only solution for transferring second harmonic generation (SHG) imaging into in vivo imaging and real time monitoring the content and structure of collagen. This is important for early diagnoses of different diseases associated with collagen change. A compact nonlinear endomicroscope using a double clad fiber (DCF) is newly employed in SHG imaging. The experiment...
متن کاملDetermination of collagen fiber orientation in histological slides using Mueller microscopy and validation by second harmonic generation imaging.
We studied the azimuthal orientations of collagen fibers in histological slides of uterine cervical tissue by two different microscopy techniques, namely Mueller polarimetry (MP) and Second Harmonic Generation (SHG). SHG provides direct visualization of the fibers with high specificity, which orientations is then obtained by suitable image processing. MP provides images of retardation (among ot...
متن کاملThird-harmonic generation microscopy with Bessel beams: a numerical study.
We study theoretically and numerically third-harmonic generation (THG) from model geometries (interfaces, slabs, periodic media) illuminated by Bessel beams produced by focusing an annular intensity profile. Bessel beams exhibit a phase and intensity distribution near focus different from Gaussian beams, resulting in distinct THG phase matching properties and coherent scattering directions. Exc...
