Abstract

See full text

A fluorescence microscope, includes an optical system configured to collect fluorescent light emitted from different fluorophore species within a field of view and to focus the fluorescent light for detection, a spectral splitting arrangement configured to split the fluorescent light into at least two spectrally different fluorescent light components, a multi-channel detector system including at least two image sensors configured to detect at least two spatial light intensity distributions based on the at least two spectrally different fluorescent light components, each spatial light intensity distribution representing an image of the object over the field of view, and a processor configured to determine spatial distributions of the different fluorophore species based on a spectral unmixing analysis of each spatial light intensity distribution, wherein the processor is further configured to obtain compensation information and to determine a spatial distribution of each fluorophore species by taking into account the compensation information.
