Description

[0002] At present, light sheet microscopic imaging technology is widely applied in live cell imaging. A traditional light sheet microscope has orthogonal light sheet illumination and fluorescence detection light paths, which are respectively built by a detection objective and an illumination objective, and the light path is complex and difficult to construct. A single-objective light sheet microscope can overcome the above-mentioned deficiencies. The single-objective light sheet microscope couples the illumination light path and the detection light path into one path, and uses one objective to illuminate and detect the sample at the same time.

[0046] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art without creative work are within the protection scope of the present application.

[0047] The intelligent imaging method based on the single-objective light sheet microscopic imaging system provided in the embodiments of the present application has a process schematic diagram as shown in Figure 2 , and the specific steps are as follows:

[0048] S100: Obtain a rough scanning cell image of a target cell.

[0049] In the embodiment, the target living cell is rough scanned under a 100x high power objective, and the purpose is to quickly obtain a cell image of the target cell. The rough scanning cell image is used to obtain a cell contour subsequently. The rough scanning cell image obtained in the embodiment is shown in Figure 2 (a). Specifically, the target cell is scanned in a sparse sampling mode in the x and z directions. Here, the x and z directions can be seen from Figure 1 , in which the x direction refers to the galvanometer scanning direction, and the z direction refers to the scanning direction of the objective scanner or the objective table scanner.

[0050] S200: Extract a cell contour from the rough scanning cell image.

[0051] Specifically, the rough scanning cell image is three-dimensionally reconstructed to obtain a three-dimensional reconstruction, and a maximum intensity projection (MIP) of the three-dimensional reconstruction in the yz plane is obtained. The cell contour is extracted from the MIP. Here, the y direction refers to the optical height direction, and the z direction refers to the scanning direction of the objective scanner or the objective table scanner. The y and z directions can be seen from Figure 1 . The cell contour information extracted in the embodiment is shown in Figure 2 (b).

[0052] In the embodiment, the three-dimensional reconstruction of the rough scanning cell image is realized by using the prior art, and specifically, the technology disclosed in the Chinese patent application No. CN 116433844A, “Non-orthogonal detection data reconstruction method and system of single-objective light sheet fluorescence microscope” is used.

[0053] For ease of understanding, the three-dimensional reconstruction process of the rough scanning cell image is simply described as follows:

[0054] 2.1 Obtain non-orthogonal detection data of the single objective light sheet fluorescence microscope, the coarse scanning cell image obtained in the application is the non-orthogonal detection data, for each frame of projection image, according to the light sheet inclination angle θ of the single objective light sheet fluorescence microscope, the projection image is pixel super-resolution reconstructed into an orthogonal detection image;

[0055] 2.2 For each frame of the orthogonal detection image, the lateral displacement filling is performed in the light sheet Rayleigh distance direction, so that the orthogonal detection image is registered with the light sheet normal direction as the axial direction, and the registered orthogonal detection image is stacked into a three-dimensional image body;

[0056] 2.3 For the three-dimensional image body, the affine transformation is adopted to correct the sample three-dimensional image of the detection view angle, that is, the three-dimensional reconstruction body.

[0057] Obtaining the MIP of the three-dimensional reconstruction body in the yz plane is helpful to better obtain the structure and characteristics in the three-dimensional body. The obtaining method of the MIP is as follows:

[0058] In the three-dimensional graph matrix xyz, the yz plane is taken as the projection plane, and the data in the x axis direction is projected onto the yz plane. For each pixel point on the yz plane, the volume data in the x axis direction is traversed respectively, the maximum intensity of each pixel point in the x axis direction is recorded, and the maximum intensity is taken as the intensity value of the corresponding pixel point on the yz plane, so as to obtain the MIP.

[0059] In this embodiment, the extraction of the cell contour information from the MIP includes: performing Gaussian filtering on the MIP, the convolution kernel radius is 3*3, then performing threshold segmentation and morphological processing on the Gaussian filtered MIP, taking the maximum connected domain, and extracting the contour of the maximum connected domain, that is, the cell contour.

[0060] S300: Determine the intersection point of each layer scanning signal of the cell contour and the horizontal line of the center of the layer, determine the scanning starting point and the scanning ending point of each layer scanning signal based on the intersection point, and send the position information of the scanning starting point and the scanning ending point to the imaging control system of the single objective light sheet microscope;

[0061] It should be noted that the horizontal line of the center of the layer is the horizontal line corresponding to the z axis scanning depth corresponding to the layer, and the horizontal line is the line orthogonal to the x direction and the z axis scanning depth position.

[0062] Considering the motion of living cells and the possible slight deviation of the sample, in order to ensure that the scanning does not lose signals, in this embodiment, the following preferred scheme is adopted to determine the scanning starting point and the scanning ending point corresponding to each layer: for each layer scanning signal intersection point, the left intersection point is given a redundant amount of d pixels to the left to obtain the scanning starting point; the right intersection point is given a redundant amount of d pixels to the right to obtain the scanning ending point; wherein d is a preset value, generally in the range of 2-6.

[0063] In the present embodiment, the determined scanning start point and scanning end point refer to Figure 2 (b), the scanning start point and scanning end point of the first layer scanning signal are b1 and e1 respectively, the scanning start point and scanning end point of the second layer scanning signal are b2 and e2 respectively, and the scanning start point and scanning end point of the third layer scanning signal are b3 and e3 respectively. It should be noted that the layering of the scanning signal is based on the z-axis depth and the scanning step length, and the z-axis depth at the slide is taken as 0.

[0064] In the single objective slide microscope, the imaging control system controls the scanning of the galvanometer by controlling the voltage signal, so in the present embodiment, the position information of the scanning start point and the scanning end point is first converted into a control voltage signal, and then sent to the imaging control system, which controls the scanning of the galvanometer according to the received control voltage signal. Specifically, at each z-axis depth, scanning starts from the scanning start point of the layer corresponding to the z-axis depth, and ends when the scanning end point of the layer corresponding to the z-axis depth is reached. In the present embodiment, the scanning diagram of each layer can be seen in Figure 2 (c).

[0065] Further, in the present embodiment, the decoding principle of the position information of the scanning start point and the scanning end point can be seen in Figure 3 , and the process is as follows:

[0066] In the conventional imaging mode of the single objective slide microscope system, the scanning start point and scanning end point positions of each layer scanning signal are consistent, and are denoted as S(b0) and S(e0) respectively, and the corresponding control voltage signals are denoted as V(b0) and V(e0) respectively, V(b0) and V(e0) represent the initial voltage and the termination voltage respectively; the conversion coefficient k between the control voltage signal and the image coordinates is calculated:

[0067]

[0068] In the present embodiment, k is used to calculate the control voltage signal corresponding to each layer scanning signal. Taking the first layer scanning signal as an example, the coordinates of the scanning start point and the scanning end point of the first layer scanning signal are denoted as S(b1) and S(e1) respectively, and the control voltage signals are converted according to formulae (2)-(3):

[0069] V(b1) = V(b0) + k*(S(b1) - S(b0)) (2)

[0070] V(e1) = V(b0) + k*(S(e1) - S(b0)) (3)

[0071] The initial voltage V(b1) and the termination voltage V(e1) calculated by formulae (2)-(3) are the control voltage signals corresponding to the first layer scanning signal.

[0072] Similarly, according to the coordinates S(b2) and S(e2) of the scanning initial point and the scanning end point of the second layer scanning signal, the control voltage signal corresponding to the second layer scanning signal is calculated by using the conversion coefficient k; according to the coordinates S(b3) and S(e3) of the scanning initial point and the scanning end point of the third layer scanning signal, the control voltage signal corresponding to the second layer scanning signal is calculated by using the conversion coefficient k. The control voltage signals corresponding to all three layers of scanning signals are all the decoding scanning control parameters.

[0073] The imaging control system of the single objective light sheet microscope controls the galvanometer to scan only the cell contour area according to the received control voltage signal, and feeds back the scanning signal.

[0074] S400: receiving the scanning signal fed back by the imaging control system, extracting the information of each layer in the scanning signal for three-dimensional reconstruction, and obtaining a three-dimensional reconstruction image;

[0075] In the embodiment, the feedback scanning signal is a light sheet signal, and each light sheet contains three-dimensional scanning information. The three-dimensional scanning signal contained in each layer of light sheet signal is extracted and stacked, and the three-dimensional reconstruction image of the target cell is obtained. See Figure 2 (d) shown.

[0076] S500: aligning the three-dimensional reconstruction image to the spatial position where the target cell is located.

[0077] Specifically, according to the position information of the scanning initial point and the scanning end point of each layer scanning signal obtained in step S300, the three-dimensional reconstruction image is aligned. Taking the first layer as an example, the first layer scanning signal needs to be right shifted by N1 pixel grids:

[0078] N1 = V(b1) / k (4)

[0079] The three-dimensional reconstruction image of the target cell can be obtained by performing step S400, but the three-dimensional reconstruction image is misaligned at this time, and each layer needs to be shifted respectively to align the three-dimensional reconstruction image to the spatial position where the target cell is located, and finally the imaging is obtained. See Figure 2 (e) shown.

[0080] In the above embodiment, the method of the application is realized by an algorithm based on python, and the imaging control system in the single objective light sheet microscopic imaging system is realized by LabVIEW programming.

[0081] The application is compatible with the existing imaging control system in the single objective light sheet microscopic imaging system, and can be automatically executed without additional user operation.

[0082] The existing imaging control system in the single objective light sheet microscopic imaging system is used to scan the entire three-dimensional space where the target cell is located, and it takes about 2 seconds to scan one cell on average. By using the present application, the signal region of the target cell is selectively scanned without scanning the entire three-dimensional space, which can greatly save the scanning time. In the above embodiment, the coarse scanning takes about 100 milliseconds, the extraction of cell contour information takes about 5 milliseconds, and the subsequent intelligent imaging takes about 1 second, so the total time is about 1.1 seconds. Compared with the existing imaging control system in the single objective light sheet microscopic imaging system, the imaging efficiency of the present application can be improved by nearly one time. When long-time and multi-volume imaging of cells is required, the present application method can save a lot of time.

[0083] The target biological sample in the above embodiment is a single cell, and in fact, the application of the present application method and system is not limited to light sheet microscopic intelligent imaging of single cells under high magnification. Different biological samples can be subjected to light sheet microscopic intelligent imaging under different magnification objectives, such as multi-cell spherical samples of organoids, large tissue biological samples similar to mouse brains, etc. In particular, when used for large tissue biological samples, the data volume is huge, and the present application method and system can significantly improve the imaging efficiency while saving a large amount of storage space, which is of greater significance.

[0084] The above is a specific description of the preferred implementation of the present application, but the present application invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments. Those skilled in the art can make various equivalent modifications or replacements without departing from the spirit of the present application, and these equivalent modifications or replacements are all included in the scope defined by the claims of the present application.
