Abstract
A dual-modal optical projection tomography microscope (OPTM) is presented, which produces three-dimensional images of single cells with isometric high resolution both in fluorescence and absorption mode. Depth of field of a high numerical aperture objective is extended by scanning the focal plane through the sample in order to enable reconstruction by back-projection method. Cells are fixed, stained, and mixed with optical gel and injected into the capillary for imaging. Combining absorption and fluorescence mode allows us to image different aspects of the disease process. Images of cells stained with both hematoxylin and fluorescence probes are shown. Registrations between two modes are discussed.
