Abstract
BackgroundOpen-top light-sheet microscopy (OT-LSM) is a specialized microscopic technique for the high-throughput cellular imaging of optically cleared, large-sized specimens, such as the brain. Despite the development of various OT-LSM techniques, achieving submicron resolution in all dimensions remains.ResultsWe developed a high-resolution open-top axially swept LSM (HR-OTAS-LSM) for high-throughput and high-resolution imaging in all dimensions. High axial and lateral resolutions were achieved by using an aberration-corrected axially swept excitation light sheet in the illumination arm and a high numerical aperture (NA) immersion objective lens in the imaging arm, respectively. The high-resolution, high-throughput visualization of neuronal networks in mouse brain and retina specimens validated the performance of HR-OTAS-LSM.ConclusionsThe proposed HR-OTAS-LSM method represents a significant advancement in the high-resolution mapping of cellular networks in biological systems such as the brain and retina.
