Phase contrast microscopy (PCM) was pioneered by Fritz Zernike to enable the study and visualisation of thin transparent biological samples, such as cells on a coverslip, for which he was awarded the ...

Abstract: Quantitative modeling for high-resolution (phase contrast) gas cell environmental transmission electron microscopy (ETEM) imaging is presented in this paper. Concepts of pre-specimen ...

Abstract: Since the 1990s, the use of X-ray phase contrast has been extensively studied for imaging weakly absorbing objects consisting of low-Z elements such as biological soft tissues and polymers.

While fuorescence has become the dominant mode in biological microscopy nowadays for its high molecular contrast, the capability of other modes based on scattering, polarization, and interference, and ...

Cell Segmentation in Phase Contrast Microscopy Images via Semi-supervised Classification over Optics-related Features (pdf) H. Su, Z. Yin, S. Huh, and T. Kanade Med ...

The limitations of brightfield microscopy include low contrast for weakly absorbing samples such as cellular or biological samples and low optical resolution due to the limitation of light's ...

This paper presents a partially coherent point-diffraction digital holographic microscopy (PC-pDHM) prototype and demonstrates its application ... when the PC-pDHM is used to image samples with ...
