Abstract:
A multi-focal structured illumination microscopy (SIM) system for generating multi-focal patterns of a sample is disclosed. The multi-focal SIM system performs a focusing, scaling and summing operation on each multi-focal pattern in a sequence of multi-focal patterns that completely scan the sample to produce a high resolution composite image.

Claim (Index 1):
A microscopy system comprising:\n a light source for transmitting a single light beam; a beam splitter for splitting the single light beam into a plurality of light beams forming a plurality of multi-focal patterns, wherein each of the multi-focal patterns defines a plurality of focal points; a scanner for scanning the plurality of light beams that forms each of the multi-focal patterns onto a sample such that the sample generates a plurality of multi-focal fluorescent emissions in each of the multi-focal patterns that defines a plurality of fluorescence focal points; a detector for collecting the plurality of multi-focal fluorescent emissions that results from each of the multi-focal patterns; and a processing system for processing the plurality of multi-focal fluorescent emissions that results from each of the multi-focal patterns collected from the detector comprising:\n a processor in operative communication with a database for storing the plurality of collected multi-focal fluorescent emissions resulting from the multi-focal patterns, wherein the processor removes out-of-focus fluorescent emissions for each of the plurality of fluorescent emission to leave only in-focus fluorescent emissions resulting from each of the plurality of multi-focal patterns, wherein the processor then scales the in-focus fluorescence emissions resulting from each of the plurality of multi-focal patterns in a local contraction operation to produce scaled, in-focus fluorescent emissions; wherein the processor sums each scaled, in-focus fluorescence emissions to produce a composite image.
