Overcoming the classical diffraction limit in optical microscopy is known to be achievable by a variety of far-field and near-field microscopy techniques. More recently, so-called micro-object-based optical super-resolution microscopy techniques have emerg ...
This study aimed to explore the value of synchrotron-based phase-contrast microcomputed tomography (micro-CT) in pulmonary vascular pathobiology. The microanatomy of the lung is complex with intricate branching patterns. Tissue sections are therefore diffi ...
Autofocus (AF) methods are extensively used in biomicroscopy, for example to acquire timelapses, where the imaged objects tend to drift out of focus. AF algorithms determine an optimal distance by which to move the sample back into the focal plane. Current ...
Super-resolution fluorescence microscopy is widespread, owing to its demonstrated ability to resolve dynamical processes within cells and to identify the structure and position of specific proteins in the interior of protein complexes. Nowadays, subcellula ...
Super-resolution and denoising are ill-posed yet fundamental image restoration tasks. In blind settings, the degradation kernel or the noise level are unknown. This makes restoration even more challenging, notably for learning-based methods, as they tend t ...
Background: Structured illumination microscopy (SIM) is a family of methods in optical fluorescence microscopy that can achieve both optical sectioning and super-resolution effects. SIM is a valuable method for high-resolution imaging of fixed cells or tis ...
Scanning Near-field Optical Microscopy (SNOM) technique enables to overcome Abbe diffraction limit of far-field optics as well as to obtain simultaneously optical and topographical images. While the optical resolution of the method is limited by the apertu ...
This feature issue commemorating 25 years of STED microscopy and 20 years of SIM is intended to highlight the incredible progress and growth in the field of superresolution microscopy since Stefan Hell and Jan Wichmann published the article Breaking the di ...
Temporal photon correlation measurement, instrumental to probing the quantum properties of light, typically requires multiple single photon detectors. Progress in single photon avalanche diode (SPAD) array technology highlights their potential as high-perf ...
Super-resolution microscopies based on the localization of single molecules have been widely adopted due to their demonstrated performance and their accessibility resulting from open software and simple hardware. The PAINT method for localization microscop ...
