A custom two-in-one HIST and line-scanning confocal excitation module

Fluorescence microscopy applications often require specialized instruments that are optimized for different experimental goals. Here, we present a reconfigurable microscopy module that integrates highly inclined swept tile (HIST) illumination for high-sensitivity single-molecule imaging and line-scanning confocal microscopy for rapid and optically sectioned volumetric acquisition. The system…
