Image quality guided smart rotation improves coverage in microscopy.


ABSTRACT: Fluorescence microscopy is an essential tool for biological discoveries. There is a constant demand for better spatial resolution across a larger field of view. Although strides have been made to improve the theoretical resolution and speed of the optical instruments, in mesoscopic samples, image quality is still largely limited by the optical properties of the sample. In Selective Plane Illumination Microscopy (SPIM), the achievable optical performance is hampered by optical degradations encountered in both the illumination and detection. Multi-view imaging, either through sample rotation or additional optical paths, is a popular strategy to improve sample coverage. In this work, we introduce a smart rotation workflow that utilizes on-the-fly image analysis to identify the optimal light sheet imaging orientations. The smart rotation workflow outperforms the conventional approach without additional hardware and achieves a better sample coverage using the same number of angles or less and thereby reduces data volume and phototoxicity.
