Recent advances in oblique plane microscopy by Kim Jeongmin

“…Together with oblique lightsheet illumination, OPM can make conventional lightsheet imaging fully compatible with standard biological specimens prepared on microscope slides. OPM is not only an excellent high-speed volumetric imaging platform by sweeping oblique lightsheet illumination without mechanically moving either the sample or objective lens in sample space, but also provides a solution for direct oblique plane imaging along any orientation of interest on the sample in a single shot. …”
