Area of Science:

Biomedical Imaging
Optical Microscopy
Computational Imaging

Background:

Existing fluorescence microscopy systems face trade-offs between field of view (FOV), resolution, and complexity.
There is an unmet need for miniaturized platforms capable of micron-scale resolution across centimeter-scale FOVs.
Current limitations hinder large-scale 3D fluorescence imaging applications.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop an advanced computational miniature mesoscope (CM2 V2) for high-resolution 3D fluorescence imaging.
To overcome the limitations of existing systems by enhancing both hardware and computational capabilities.
To enable single-shot, 3D high-resolution imaging across a wide FOV in a miniaturized platform.

Main Methods:

Enhanced hardware with a 3x3 microlens array and a hybrid emission filter for improved contrast.
Developed a 3D-printed free-form collimator for enhanced LED illumination efficiency.
Created an accurate 3D linear shift-variant (LSV) model for aberration characterization and trained a deep learning model (CM2Net) using a simulator.

Main Results:

CM2Net demonstrated accurate 3D reconstruction across a ~7-mm FOV and 800-μm depth.
Achieved ~6-μm lateral and ~25-μm axial resolution, an ~8x improvement in axial resolution.
The system offers a ~1400x speed increase compared to previous model-based algorithms.

Conclusions:

CM2 V2 significantly advances miniaturized fluorescence imaging capabilities.
The computational miniature mesoscope provides high-resolution 3D imaging with a large FOV and depth.
This simple, low-cost system is poised for broad application in large-scale 3D fluorescence imaging.
