Thin-sheet laser imaging microscopy for optical sectioning of thick tissues
Thin-sheet laser imaging microscopy for optical sectioning of thick tissues is a scholarly work, published in 2009 in ''BioTechniques''. The main subjects of the publication include bright-field microscopy, resolution, fluorescence microscope, Light sheet fluorescence microscopy, optical coherence tomography, materials science, optics, image stitching, photoacoustic imaging, optical microscope, microtome, microscope, microscopy, clearance, laser, and Optical sectioning. The authors report the development of a modular and optimized thin-sheet laser imaging microscope (TSLIM) for nondestructive optical sectioning of organisms and thick tissues such as the mouse cochlea, zebrafish brain/inner ear, and rat brain at a resolution that is comparable to wide-field fluorescence microscopy.
