  • Spatial super-resolution apparatus for fluorescence analysis of eye fundus
    Patent number: 10905324
    Abstract: Fluorescence microscopy apparatus for the analysis of a fundus of a sample eye, based on the use of an optical equipment configured to generate a Bessel beam inside a sample eye and an objective configured to increase the numerical aperture of an “objective-cornea-lens” assembly by reducing the overall focal length of the fluorescence microscopy apparatus, also allowing a significant increase in spatial resolution compared to conventional microscopy systems.
    Type: Grant

  • CONFOCAL MICROSCOPY APPARATUS AND RELATED PROCESS FOR ACQUIRING AND PROCESSING IMAGES
    Publication number: 20180292634
    Abstract: Confocal microscopy apparatus, and related process, comprising: a structured light generating component configured to be illuminated with a basic light beam and to generate a structured light beam focused on a first plane; a spinning disk configured to receive said structured light beam and to transmit a resulting excitation beam to an optics of a microscope focused on a plane of a sample, wherein the spinning disk lies on a second plane and comprises a disk-shaped substrate composed of an optically transparent material, the substrate of the spinning disk comprising a planar first surface and an opposing planar second surface and a patterned mask disposed on one of the first surface and the second surface and comprising at least one sector provided with one or more continuous spiral slit apertures, wherein the patterned mask or an outer surface thereof is composed of a highly black material opaque to light; a housing configured to house on a third plane an acquisition sensor configured to detect a fluorescent
