Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Optics
  • Microscopy
  • Adaptive Optics

Background:

  • Specimen-induced aberrations degrade image quality in multiphoton microscopy.
  • Adaptive optics (AO) systems can correct these aberrations.
  • Wavefront sensorless AO offers an alternative to traditional wavefront sensing.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To integrate wavefront sensorless AO with a custom multiphoton microscope.
  • To correct specimen-induced aberrations for enhanced imaging.
  • To evaluate the performance and benefits of the AO system.

Main Methods:

  • A liquid-crystal-on-silicon (LCoS) modulator was used to generate Zernike modes.
  • The system was tested on samples with various nonlinear signals.
  • Aberration correction was performed during image acquisition.

Main Results:

  • Correction of higher-order aberrations consistently improved image contrast and resolution.
  • The optimal aberration pattern was stable over time for the tested samples.
  • Spherical aberration was dominant at deeper sample locations.

Conclusions:

  • Wavefront sensorless AO effectively corrects specimen-induced aberrations in multiphoton microscopy.
  • The developed system enhances imaging performance, particularly for deep-tissue imaging.
  • Understanding aberration types, like spherical aberration, is crucial for effective correction.
