Abstract: An optical microscope system for reconstructing an image of an object includes a means for creating a light beam profile, an optics for directing the light beam profile to the object, a moving means for implementing a scanning of the object with the light beam profile, a rotating means for enabling rotating the light beam profile and the object, and for changing the direction of scanning, and a detector for measuring the intensity of light passing through or reflected by the object. The image may be tomographically reconstructed using this intensity data associated with various directions as a plurality of projections.

Abstract: The invention is an optical microscope system (1) for reconstructing an image of an object (14), comprising: a means (8) for creating a light beam profile (7), an optics for directing the light beam profile (7) to the object (14), a moving means for implementing a scanning of the object (14) with the light beam profile (7), a rotating means for enabling rotating vis-a-vis each other the light beam profile (7) and the object (14), and for changing the direction of scanning, and a detector (5) for measuring the intensity of light passing through or reflected by the object (14). Further, the invention is a method for reconstructing the image of an object (14) by means of an optical microscope system (1).
