AbstractKeeping the excitation light sheet in focus is critical in selective plane illumination microscopy (SPIM) to ensure its 3D imaging ability. Unfortunately, an effective method that can be used in SPIM on general biological specimens to find the axial position of the excitation light sheet and keep it in focus is barely available. Here, we present a method to solve the problem. We investigate its mechanism and demonstrate its performance on a lattice light sheet microscope.

AbstractTiling light sheet selective plane illumination microscopy (TLS-SPIM) improves 3D imaging ability of SPIM by using a real-time optimized tiling light sheet. However, the imaging speed decreases, and size of the raw image data increases proportionally to the number of tiling positions in TLS-SPIM. The decreased imaging speed and the increased raw data size could cause significant problems when TLS-SPIM is used to image large specimens at high spatial resolution. Here, we present a novel method to solve the problem. Discontinuous light sheets created by scanning coaxial beam arrays synchronized with camera exposures are used for 3D imaging to decrease the number of tiling positions required at each image plane without sacrificing the spatial resolution. We investigate the performance of the method via numerical simulation and discuss the technical details of the method.
