A short overview on 3D live cell imaging is given. Relevant samples are described and various problems and challenges—including 3D imaging by optical sectioning, light scattering and phototoxicity—are addressed. Furthermore, enhanced methods of wide-field or laser scanning microscopy together with some relevant examples and applications are summarized. In the future one may profit from a continuous increase in microscopic resolution, but also from molecular sensing techniques in the nanometer range using e.g., non-radiative energy transfer (FRET).

We report the use of a programmable array microscope (PAM) for the acquisition of spectrally resolved and high-throughput optical sections. The microscope is based on the use of a spatial light modulator for defining patterns of excitation and/or detection of fluorescence. For obtaining optically sectioned spectral images, the entrance slit of an imaging spectrograph and a line illumination pattern defined with a spatial light modulator are placed in conjugate optical positions. Compared to wide-field illumination, optical sectioning led to greater than 3× improvement in the rejection of out-of-focus fluorescence emission and nearly 6× greater peak-to-background ratios in biological specimens, yielding better contrast and spectral characterization. These effects resulted from a reduction in the artifacts arising from spectral contributions of structures outside the region of interest. We used the programmable illumination capability of the spectroscopic system to explore a variety of excitation/detection patterns for increasing the throughput of optical sectioning microscopes. A Sylvester-type Hadamard construction was particularly efficient, performing optical sectioning while maintaining a 50% optical throughput. These results demonstrate the feasibility of full-field highly multiplexed confocal spectral imaging.

Two alternative methods of Raman imaging, via global (wide-field) illumination and via point illumination in combination with confocal light collection, have been applied to the study of heterogeneous polymer systems. From the results obtained it becomes apparent that the fluorescence inherent to most polymer systems severely limits the use of global illumination. Furthermore, the lack in depth resolution in Raman imaging by global illumination ruled out this method for the study of bulk polymer samples. Also as a consequence of the absence of depth resolution, the global illumination technique appeared more vulnerable to artifacts arising from scattering effects due to the sample geometry and fluorescence. Hence, for a general application of Raman imaging to the study of polymer samples, Raman imaging by point illumination in conjunction with confocal light collection is the method of choice
