LIGHT-FIELD MICROSCOPY IMAGE CAPTURING METHOD AND LIGHT-FIELD MICROSCOPE

The invention relates to a light-field microscope and a light-field microscopy image capturing method, including the steps of providing an illumination radiation from at least one light source; modulating the illumination radiation by virtue of adjusting the intensity distribution thereof; generating a dynamic light sheet in a sample space, in which a sample to be imaged can be arranged; scanning a region of the sample to be imaged using the light sheet; collecting a detection radiation and detecting image signals using light-field technology. The illumination radiation is modulated by virtue of the light source being controlled and an intensity of the illumination radiation provided by the light source being altered, especially in a controlled fashion over time. Image recordings of the sample are triggered for different positions of the light sheet.
