Nonlinear Inverse Problems in Quantitative Phase Imaging

The topic of this thesis is the development of new algorithmic reconstruction methods for quantitative phase imaging (QPI). In the past decade, advanced QPI has emerged as a valuable tool to study label-free biological samples and uncover their 3D structur ...

In-operando dynamic visualization of flow through porous preforms based on X-ray phase contrast imaging

Véronique Michaud, Baris Çaglar, Helena Luisa Teixido Pedarros

Direct visualization is often sought to elucidate flow patterns and validate models to predict the filling kinetics during processes whereby a liquid resin infiltrates a textile porous preform. Here, X-ray phase contrast interferometry is evaluated to imag ...

Robust Phase Unwrapping via Deep Image Prior for Quantitative Phase Imaging

Michaël Unser, Matthias Lütolf, Nathalie Brandenberg, Thanh-An Michel Pham, Fangshu Yang

Quantitative phase imaging (QPI) is an emerging label-free technique that produces images containing morphological and dynamical information without contrast agents. Unfortunately, the phase is wrapped in most imaging system. Phase unwrapping is the comput ...

3D reconstruction of weakly scattering objects from 2D intensity-only measurements using the Wolf transform

Demetri Psaltis, Joowon Lim, Elizabeth Elena Antoine, Ahmed Ayoub

A new approach to optical diffraction tomography (ODT) based on intensity measurements is presented. By applying the Wolf transform directly to intensity measurements, we observed unexpected behavior in the 3D reconstruction of the sample. Such a reconstru ...

Quantitative Microstructural Imaging for Clinical Use

Gian Franco Piredda

Today, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a well-established medical imaging modality thanks to its excellent soft tissue contrast. Conventional MR image contrasts can be weighted towards one or more physical properties that discriminate different tissues ...

Optical phase contrast imaging of human retinal cells by changing the tissue refractive index

Christophe Moser, Timothé Laforest, Laura Emmanuelle Kowalczuk, Mathieu Künzi

Purpose : Based on oblique partially coherent illumination of transparent samples, we developed a simple custom Optical Phase Imaging (OPI) microscope providing a label-free, semi-quantitative phase contrast imaging. The aim of this study was to explore th ...

Development of novel experimental and computational methods for three-dimensional coherent and super-resolution microscopy

Adrien Charles-François Raymond Descloux

Optical microscopy is one widely used tool to study cell functions and the interaction of molecules at a sub-cellular level. Optical microscopy techniques can be broadly divided into two categories: partially coherent and incoherent. Coherent microscopy te ...

All-Dielectric Programmable Huygens' Metasurfaces

Hatice Altug, Andreas Tittl, Aleksandrs Leitis

Low-loss nanostructured dielectric metasurfaces have emerged as a breakthrough platform for ultrathin optics and cutting-edge photonic applications, including beam shaping, focusing, and holography. However, the static nature of their constituent materials ...

3D nanometrology of transparent objects by phase calibration of a basic bright-field microscope for multiple illumination apertures

Martinus Gijs, Daniel Migliozzi, Bingying Zhao

Optical retrieval of the structure of transparent objects at the nanoscale requires adapted techniques capable of probing their interaction with light. Here, we considered a method based on calibration of the defocusing with partially coherent illumination ...

Fat navigators based retrospective motion correction strategies for brain magnetic resonance imaging

Frédéric Gretsch

Magnetic resonance resonance (MRI) is a widely used modality to obtain in vivo tissue information. Clinical applications are near countless, and almost all body parts can be examined using an MR scanner. As the method is non invasive, does not use ionizing ...
