Optical sectioning is the process by which a suitably designed microscope can produce clear images of focal planes deep within a thick sample. This is used to reduce the need for thin sectioning using instruments such as the microtome. Many different techniques for optical sectioning are used and several microscopy techniques are specifically designed to improve the quality of optical sectioning.

An ophthalmic device and an ophthalmic device control program are provided that are capable of appropriately acquiring three-dimensional information about the anterior segment of the eye while stabilizing the fixation of the subject's eye. [Solution] The fixation target presenting optical system presents a fixation target to the subject's eye. The cross-sectional imaging optical system captures cross-sectional images of the anterior segment by receiving return light from the anterior segment that has been optically sectioned by the imaging light. The moving unit moves an optical unit including the fixation target presenting optical system and the cross-sectional imaging optical system relative to the subject's eye. The control unit can perform a three-dimensional information acquisition process to acquire three-dimensional information about the anterior segment by capturing cross-sectional images of multiple locations on the anterior segment while moving the optical unit and scanning the imaging light. When performing the three-dimensional information acquisition process, the control unit positions the fixation target within a limited area centered on the focal position of the entire lens system of the fixation target presenting optical system, regardless of the refractive power of the subject's eye.

Optical sectioning and super-resolution imaging in tdi-based continuous line scanning microscopy

An imaging system for imaging a biological sample or another sample containing fluorescent molecules may include an optical system with a light source emitting light, wherein the light is directed by the optical system to the sample via at least one plane being conjugate to the image plane. The optical source may have an extended radiation pattern, in other words, the radiation beam may have an extent in the x- and y- planes, rather than a point source. The extent of the illumination region in x and y may be based on and matched to the detector area onto which the radiation may be imaged, preferably a TDI detector. This novel system may include genomics, proteomics and transcriptomics work flows.

Translational rapid ultraviolet-excited sectioning tomography assisted with deep learning

Translational rapid ultraviolet-excited sectioning tomography (TRUST) applies ultraviolet (UV) excitation to a sample and images fluorescence and autofluorescence emission for tomographically imaging the sample. Deep-learning neural networks are used to achieve higher imaging speed and imaging resolution. In one use, fluorescence images acquired with relatively low imaging resolution can be transformed into high-resolution images through the first conditional generative adversarial network (cGAN), a super-resolution neural network (e.g., ESRGAN), which is also helpful for reducing the image scanning time. In another use, the second cGAN, such as Pix2Pix, is used to realize virtual optical sectioning to enhance the axial resolution of the imaging system. Compared to the conventional pattern illumination methods (e.g., HiLo microscopy), which need at least two shots for each field of view, the imaging speed is also times higher because only one shot under the uniform-illumination condition of UV irradiation is required.
