Abstract:
Recently, fluorescence and confocal type bio-microscopes have been widely used in variety of fields, including hospitals and research institutes in the observation and inspection for the cells, blood and skin tissues. The most challenging issues of these bio-microscopes are resolution improvement and real-time observation. Another issue is how to acquire and display three-dimensional (3D) information of the observation samples. In the real-time observation, 3D image generating time is needed for the constant optical slices. Lim et al.[Lim et. al, 2009] proposed bio-microscope which generating the 3D information of object; however could not provide in real-time. In this study, we proposed an improved 3D bio-microscope which is applied realtime generating 3D information of the observation sample using Open-computer-language (OpenCL) parallel processing and optical reconstruction using integral imaging technique with simultaneously improved resolution.
