In Vivo Deep Tissue Imaging with Optical Wavefront Control

Wed, May 27, 2015 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM EDT

FREE WEBINAR


Dr. Meng Cui
Optical microscopy has become an indispensable tool in modern biology. The high spatial and temporal resolution and the rich molecular information offered by optical imaging have led to new discoveries in a variety of research fields.

A major constraint of optical imaging is the limited imaging depth in turbid biological tissue. This talk will explore two new techniques for addressing this problem, both utilizing wavefront control to achieve unprecedented performance.

Newport Corporation – OpticsCage+
OpticsCage+™ utilizes an easy-to-use snap in design to expedite the creation of optical systems. Most cage systems only use a closed-hole captive design for adapting optic carriers to the 4-rod cage structure. This restriction requires a nearly complete teardown of a cage system to simply add or remove a component. The open-slot design of OpticsCage+ allows optical elements to be inserted directly into an assembled cage without the need for disassembly.
