Producing Isotropic Super-Resolution Images from Line Scanning Confocal Microscopy

This technology includes a microscopy technique that produces super-resolution images from diffraction-limited images obtained from a line scanning confocal microscope. First, the operation of the confocal microscope is modified so that images with sparse line excitation are recorded. Second, these images are processed to increase resolution in one...

Accelerating Multiview Registration and Iterative Deconvolution to Improve Spatial Resolution and Contrast in Fluorescence Microscopy

This technology includes algorithms and software that improve the speed of iterative deconvolution, a common method for improving spatial resolution and contrast in fluorescence microscopy images. These algorithms also improve the registration of multiview datasets, and apply deep learning to accelerate spatially varying deconvolution.

Improvement of Axial Resolution via Photoswitching and Standing Wave Illumination

This technology includes an illuminator and reflector that enables flexible standing wave illumination on an inverted microscope stand, and procedures for using such illumination to improve axial resolution in confocal or instant SIM imaging systems. The axial resolution in conventional fluorescence microscopy is typically limited by diffraction to...

Three-dimensional Fluorescence Polarization Excitation via Multiview Imaging

This technology includes a method that extends fluorescence polarization imaging so that the dipole moment of a fluorescent dye may be excited regardless of its 3D orientation. By exciting the dipole from multiple directions, we ensure that excitation may occur even if the dipole is unfavorably oriented along the axial (propagation) axis. If the dye...

Computational Alleviation of Depth-dependent Degradation in Fluorescence Images

This technology includes an approach that dramatically lessens the effects of depth-dependent degradation in fluorescence microscopy images. First, we develop realistic ‘forward models’ of the depth dependent degradation and apply these forward models to shallow imaging planes that are expected to be relatively free of such degradation....

Multiview Super-resolution Microscopy System and Methods for Research and Diagnostic Applications

This technology includes a microscopy technique that combines the strengths of multiview imaging (better resolution isotropy, better depth penetration) with resolution-improving structured illumination microscopy (SIM). The proposed microscope uses a sharp line-focused illumination structure to excite and confocally detect sample fluorescence from 3...

Gene Therapy for Treatment of CRX-Autosomal Dominant Retinopathies

Abstract: Mutations in the cone rod homeobox (CRX) transcription factor lead to distinct retinopathy phenotypes, including early-onset vision impairment in dominant Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA). Adeno-Associated virus (AAV) vector-mediated delivery of a CRX cDNA under the control of a CRX promoter region partially restored photoreceptor phenotype...
