Scattered light fluorescence microscopy: imaging through turbid layers.
A major limitation of any type of microscope is the penetration depth in turbid tissue. Here, we demonstrate a fundamentally novel kind of fluorescence microscope that images through optically thick turbid layers. The microscope uses scattered light, rather than light propagating along a straight path, for imaging with subwavelength resolution. Our method uses constructive interference to focus...
متن کاملScattered light fluorescence microscopy in three dimensions.
Recently, we have proposed a method to image fluorescent structures behind turbid layers at diffraction limited resolution using wave-front shaping and the memory effect. However, this was limited to a raster scanning of the wave-front shaped focus to a two dimensional plane. In applications, it can however be of great importance to be able to scan a three dimensional volume. Here we show that ...
متن کاملDynamic light sheet generation and fluorescence imaging behind turbid media
Background Light sheet microscopy became a popular tool allowing fast imaging with reduced out of focus light. However, when light penetrates turbid media such as biological tissues, multiple scattering scrambles the illumination into a speckle pattern and severely challenges conventional fluorescence imaging with focused light or with a light sheet. In this article, we present generation of li...
متن کاملFluorescence microscopic imaging through tissue-like turbid media
In this article, effective point spread functions for fluorescence microscopic imaging are introduced to investigate the effects of scattering particle size and optical gating on image resolution under single-photon (1p) and two-photon (2p) excitation. The dependence of image resolution on these effects shows a deeper penetration depth under 2p excitation due to the use of a longer illumination...
متن کاملSpatial coherence of forward-scattered light in a turbid medium.
We study spatially coherent forward-scattered light propagating in a turbid medium of moderate optical depth (0-9 mean free paths). Coherent detection was achieved by using a tilted heterodyne geometry, which desensitizes coherent detection of the attenuated incident light. We show that the degree of spatial coherence is significantly higher for light scattered only once in comparison with that...
