Label-free Brain Organoid Imaging with Fourier Ptychographic Microscopy
Analysis
Key Takeaways
- •FPM enables label-free, high-resolution imaging of brain organoid slices.
- •FPM provides quantitative phase imaging, revealing cell-type-specific biophysical signatures.
- •The method allows for correlative imaging with fluorescence microscopy.
- •FPM offers a cost-effective and high-throughput approach for studying brain organoid development and disease modeling.
“Nuclei located in neurogenic regions consistently exhibited significantly higher phase values (optical path difference) compared to nuclei elsewhere, suggesting cell-type-specific biophysical signatures.”
