      Histology involves the observation of structural features in tissues using a microscope. While diffraction-limited optical microscopes are commonly used in histological investigations, their resolving capabilities are insufficient to visualize details at subcellular level. Although a novel set of super-resolution optical microscopy techniques can fulfill the resolution demands in such cases, the ...
    • Deriving high contrast fluorescence microscopy images through low contrast noisy image stacks 

      Acuna Maldonado, Sebastian Andres; ROY, MAYANK; Villegas, Luis; Dubey, Vishesh Kumar; Ahluwalia, Balpreet Singh; Agarwal, Krishna (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-08-11)
      Contrast in fluorescence microscopy images allows for the differentiation between different structures by their difference in intensities. However, factors such as point-spread function and noise may reduce it, affecting its interpretability. We identified that fluctuation of emitters in a stack of images can be exploited to achieve increased contrast when compared to the average and Richardson-Lucy ...
    • Scalable-resolution structured illumination microscopy 

      Butola, Ankit; Acuna Maldonado, Sebastian Andres; Hansen, Daniel Henry; Agarwal, Krishna (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-11-15)
      Structured illumination microscopy suffers from the need of sophisticated instrumentation and precise calibration. This makes structured illumination microscopes costly and skill-dependent. We present a novel approach to realize super-resolution structured illumination microscopy using an alignment non-critical illumination system and a reconstruction algorithm that does not need illumination ...
