[0056] Embodiment Two

[0057] As shown in Figure 5 The embodiment provides a cell microscopic image automatic acquisition and processing method based on multi-band fluorescence excitation, which is implemented based on the above device and includes the following steps:

[0058] S1, sample installation and focusing of the objective table: the sample to be measured is fixed on a glass slide and installed on the objective table of the focusing objective table group; by adjusting the X-axis horizontal air bag, the Y-axis horizontal air bag and the Z-axis vertical air bag arranged in the focusing objective table group, and the auxiliary action of the return spring, the fine movement of the sample in the horizontal plane and the accurate focusing in the vertical direction are realized, so that the sample area is in the center of the imaging field and has a suitable focal depth.

[0059] S2, composite excitation light generation and regulation: the main excitation light source and the compensation excitation light source are started synchronously, the main excitation light source emits main illumination light to the front side of the beam splitter, and the compensation excitation light source implements back illumination from the back side of the beam splitter, and the two form composite illumination light together. The composite illumination light forms superimposed output after passing through the beam splitter and irradiates the sample area to excite different fluorescence responses.

[0060] The light intensity sensor is installed on the back side of the beam splitter, which is used to detect the composite light intensity of the transmission main light and the reflection compensation light passing through the beam splitter in real time, and compare and analyze according to the pre-set transmission-reflection curve of the system, automatically adjust the output power of the compensation excitation light source, so that the composite light intensity of the sample irradiated finally is stabilized in the target range.

[0061] S3. Monochromatic Excitation Light Output and Optical Path Allocation: The integrated filter assembly within the monochromatic excitation module is controlled by a driver, which rotates it around the optical axis, causing the excitation filter of the selected wavelength band to intersect the main optical path. When the excitation filter is positioned within the main optical path, the composite illumination light is filtered into monochromatic excitation light of a specific wavelength band, which is incident on the sample area under test at an oblique angle, achieving specific spectral excitation under multi-band fluorescence excitation conditions.

[0062] S4. Image Acquisition and Imaging Path Control: The excited fluorescence signal is collected by the objective lens and optically processed along a predetermined optical path through a dichroic mirror, emission filter, and eyepiece system. The processed light signal is ultimately focused onto the photosensitive element of the imaging camera, which captures the current fluorescence state of the sample, generating high-resolution microscopic image data.

[0063] S5. Image processing and preview: The acquired raw image data is format converted, color balanced, and enhanced by the image processor, and the processed image is displayed in real time on the preview monitor, allowing the operator to instantly observe the image quality and fluorescence response status of the current field of view.

[0064] S6. Image selection and storage: The user decides whether to keep the current image based on the preview display effect. If so, the system automatically stores the image in the image memory. If the image has problems such as drifting focus, light spots, or an unsatisfactory signal-to-noise ratio, the system control interface can be used to delete it to avoid the accumulation of redundant images.

[0065] The feedback regulation process in step S2 includes:

[0066] S21. Calling a transmission-reflection curve preset in the system, wherein the curve reflects the ratio between the transmitted light of the main excitation light source and the reflected light of the compensation excitation light source, and setting an allowable range of the target illumination light intensity;

[0067] S22, using a light intensity sensor to collect the composite light intensity value on the back side of the spectroscope in real time, and calculating the equivalent illumination intensity of the current composite illumination light on the front side of the spectroscope through an algorithm;

[0068] S23, comparing and analyzing the estimated illumination intensity with the target light intensity value, generating a feedback control signal based on the deviation, and sending the signal to the compensation excitation light source controller to adjust its output light intensity;

[0069] S24. Repeat the acquisition and adjustment process to gradually approach the target illumination intensity through multiple cycles. When the absolute value of the difference between the calculated illumination intensity on the positive side of the spectrometer and the set target value is lower than the tolerance threshold set by the system, the feedback adjustment is terminated and the next round of image acquisition process is entered.

[0070] This method ensures sufficient excitation of fluorescence signals under different excitation bands while avoiding overexposure or underexposure, improving the balance of image data and analysis stability, and is suitable for the standardized acquisition process of multi-target cell fluorescence imaging analysis.

Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the foregoing embodiments. The foregoing embodiments and descriptions are merely illustrative of the principles of the present invention.
