Abstract: The invention relates to a light sheet microscopy method for generating a volume image of a sample. In the method, a light sheet is generated in an intermediate image space by means of an optical lighting unit, said light sheet being imaged into the sample using an optical transport unit. The light sheet is used to scan a sample volume region which substantially has the shape of a parallelepiped. An optical detection unit with an optical axis which is tilted by a tilt angle relative to the optical axis of the optical transport unit is used to generate a respective tomographic image from intermediate images generated in an intermediate image space. Volume image data is generated which represents a tomographic image stack composed of the tomographic images. The individual tomographic images are offset relative to one another on the basis of the tilting of the optical axis of the optical detection unit relative to the optical axis of the optical transport unit such that the tomographic image stack represents a sample volume region image sheared by the tilt angle. A two-dimensional first transformation is used to generate first spectral data. An unshearing operation is used on the volume image data. Additionally, second spectral data is generated using a one-dimensional second transformation of the unsheared volume image data of the tomographic image stack. Finally, a target image space is defined in which the volume image is generated from the first spectral data and the second spectral data.
