- W2796006467 abstract "In the past two decades, Fluorescence microscopy has imparted tremendous impact in Biology and Imaging. Several super-resolution Fluorescence imaging techniques (e.g. PALM, STED, STORM, 4Pi and structured illumination) have enabled diff raction-unlimited imaging. But high resolution is limited to a depth of few tens of microns. Thus, deep tissue imaging and simultaneous volume imaging have become a highly sought after feature in Fluorescence microscopy.The research work in this thesis address these issues by using spatial filtering techniques to tailor the point spread function (PSF) which uniquely characterizes the optical sys-tem. The advantage of this approach lies in the fact that intricate details about the focal region can be computed and designed with the help of well established theory and experimentation. In particular, this technique was applied to both spherical and cylindrical lenses. The former was used to generate Bessel-like, non-diffracting beams which demonstrated the ability to penetrate deep inside tissue-like media and thereby yielded an imaging depth of nearly 650μm as compared to about 200μm for a state-of-the-art confocal microscope. The latter gave rise to light-sheet and it's extended version that is ideal for planar imaging at large penetration depths. Another development is the generation of multiple light-sheet illumination pattern that can simultaneously illuminate several planes of the specimen. The proposed multiple light-sheet illumination microscopy (MLSIM) technique may enable volume imaging in Fluorescence microscopy.The first two chapters of this thesis are introductory in nature and provides a general overview of the principles of Fluorescence microscopy and three state-of-the-art Fluorescence imaging techniques; namely confocal, multi-photon and light-sheet based microscopy. Confocal microscopes are widely considered as a standard tool for biologists and this discussion shows that even though they have made signi ficant contributions in the fields of biophysics, biophotonics and nanoscale imaging, their inability to achieve better penetration depth has prevented their use in thick, scattering samples such as biological tissue. The system PSF of a confocal microscope broadens as it goes deeper in-side a scattering sample resulting in poor-resolution thereby destroying the very concept of high resolution, noise-free imaging. Additionally, confocal microscopy suffers from in-creased photo-bleaching due to o -layer (above and below the focal plane) excitation and low temporal resolution since it requires point-by-point scanning mechanism. On the other hand, multi-photon microscopy offers several advantages over confocal microscopy such as reduced photo-bleaching and inherent optical sectioning ability, however, it still lacks in providing high temporal resolution. Light-sheet based microscopy have gained popularity in recent years and promises to deliver high spatio-temporal resolution with minimized photo-bleaching. Recently, a considerable amount of research has been dedicated to…" @default.
