Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the fields of optical microscopy technology and biological cell imaging technology, in particular to a method, system and prism light sheet device for super-resolution imaging of deep cells. Background technique
[0002] Super-resolution localization microscopy can provide near-molecular-level resolution. The development of this technique has greatly advanced our understanding of intracellular structures. However, in essence, this technology relies on the imaging and precise positioning of a single fluorescently labeled molecule, and requires a very high image SNR (Signal to Noise Ratio, signal-to-noise ratio) to ensure the accuracy of positioning. Localization Microscopy (LM) usually uses Total Internal Reflection (TIRF) or near-TIRF (near-TIRF) methods to reduce background noise by limiting the depth of the illuminated area, so the imaging of this method The area is limited to a few microns above the surface of the sample s...
