Traditional imaging systems exhibit a well-known trade-off between the resolution and field of view their captured images. Typical cameras microscopes can either “zoom in” image at high-resolution, or they out” to see larger area lower resolution, but rarely achieve both effects simultaneously. In this review, we present details about relatively new procedure termed Fourier ptychography (FP), which addresses above produce gigapixel-scale images without requiring any moving parts. To...

Diffuse correlation spectroscopy (DCS) is a well-established method that measures rapid changes in scattered coherent light to identify blood flow and functional dynamics within tissue. While its sensitivity minute scatterer displacements leads number of unique advantages, conventional DCS systems become photon-limited when attempting probe deep into the tissue, which long measurement windows (∽1 sec). Here, we present high-sensitivity system with 1024 parallel detection channels integrated...

This paper experimentally examines different configurations of a multi-camera array microscope (MCAM) imaging technology. The MCAM is based upon densely packed “micro-cameras” to jointly image across large field-of-view (FOV) at high resolution. Each micro-camera within the images unique area sample interest, and then all acquired data with 54 micro-cameras are digitally combined into composite frames, whose total pixel counts significantly exceed standard systems. We present results from...
Abstract Noninvasive optical imaging through dynamic scattering media has numerous important biomedical applications but still remains a challenging task. While standard diffuse methods measure absorption or fluorescent emission, it is also well‐established that the temporal correlation of scattered coherent light diffuses tissue much like intensity.
