Embodiment Construction

[0047] As mentioned in the background technology section, when the microscopic imaging device in the prior art studies thick samples, there are problems of low Z-direction resolution and large image background noise.

[0048] The inventors found that the thick samples in the prior art have enhanced scattering and absorption of light due to their dense tissue structure, which requires higher resolution in the Z direction of the imaging technology; at the same time, the unscattered light in the sample and multiple Scattered light will lead to a bright background, how to reduce the background and improve the contrast of the image becomes the key.

[0049] The current main tools for imaging thick samples in the state of the art include: confocal microscopy, two-photon fluorescence microscopy, and light sheet microscopy. These three microscopic imaging techniques are all based on fluorescent labels to generate image contrast. Fluorescent labels will affect the structure of biologic...

Abstract

The present application provides a microscopic imaging device based on epi-illumination, including: a ring light source, a first focusing module, a microscope objective lens, a sample stage, an annular attenuation sheet, a second focusing module, and a first image acquisition device; The micro-imaging device collects the backscattering signals of thick samples, and reduces the interference of the system background and sample diffuse reflection on the weak backscattering signals through the annular attenuation plate, so as to realize the collection of relatively clear backscattering signals, thereby improving Z-direction resolution of thick samples in microscopic imaging devices, while reducing image background noise.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of optical imaging, in particular to a microscopic imaging device based on epi-illumination. Background technique [0002] The three-dimensional microscopic imaging technology with high spatio-temporal resolution and high contrast is of great significance to the study of thick samples such as model organisms. Realizing the visualization of various tissues in model organisms with cell-level resolution is very useful in genetic biology and neurobiology. prospect. [0003] However, when the microscopic imaging technology in the prior art studies thick samples, the resolution in the Z direction is low and the image background noise is large. Contents of the invention [0004] In view of this, the present invention provides a microscopic imaging device based on epi-illumination to solve the problems of poor Z-direction resolution and large image background noise in the microscopic imaging device in the prior a...
