Quantitative phase imaging (QPI) has been widely applied in characterizing cells and tissues. Spatial light interference microscopy (SLIM) is a highly sensitive QPI method, due to its partially coherent illumination and common path interferometry geometry. However, its acquisition rate is limited because of the four-frame phase-shifting scheme. On the other hand, off-axis methods like diffraction phase microscopy (DPM), allows for single-shot QPI. However, the laser-based DPM system is plagued by spatial noise due to speckles and multiple reflections. In a parallel development, deep learning was proven valuable in the field of bioimaging, especially due to its ability to translate one form of contrast into another. Here, we propose using deep learning to produce synthetic, SLIM-quality, high-sensitivity phase maps from DPM, single-shot images as input. We used an inverted microscope with its two ports connected to the DPM and SLIM modules, such that we have access to the two types of images on the same field of view. We constructed a deep learning model based on U-net and trained on over 1,000 pairs of DPM and SLIM images. The model learned to remove the speckles in laser DPM and overcame the background phase noise in both the test set and new data. Furthermore, we implemented the neural network inference into the live acquisition software, which now allows a DPM user to observe in real-time an extremely low-noise phase image. We demonstrated this principle of computational interference microscopy (CIM) imaging using blood smears, as they contain both erythrocytes and leukocytes, in static and dynamic conditions.
Localization microscopy is an imaging technique in which the positions of individual nanoscale point emitters (e.g. fluorescent molecules) are determined at high precision from their images. This is the key ingredient in single/multiple-particle-trac
Video microscopy has a long history of providing insights and breakthroughs for a broad range of disciplines, from physics to biology. Image analysis to extract quantitative information from video microscopy data has traditionally relied on algorithm
Deep neural networks have emerged as effective tools for computational imaging including quantitative phase microscopy of transparent samples. To reconstruct phase from intensity, current approaches rely on supervised learning with training examples;
Cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) provides images from different copies of the same biomolecule in arbitrary orientations. Here, we present an end-to-end unsupervised approach that learns individual particle orientations from cryo-EM data while
Computational ghost imaging (CGI) is a single-pixel imaging technique that exploits the correlation between known random patterns and the measured intensity of light transmitted (or reflected) by an object. Although CGI can obtain two- or three- dime
