Patent attributes
A deep-ultraviolet microscopy system includes a light source for outputting a light beam for illuminating a biological sample, the light beam being inclusive of ultraviolet wavelengths; a reception space for reception of a biological sample for illumination by the light beam; an ultraviolet microscope objective for collecting and relaying light that interacts with the biological sample to an image capture device; and an ultraviolet sensitive image capture device for capturing images of the biological sample, with the microscopy system configured to capture multiple images of the biological sample at one or more ultraviolet wavelengths. A method of processing ultraviolet images of biological samples includes receiving a plurality of multi-spectral ultraviolet images of a biological sample; normalizing and scaling the images; and assigning each image to a channel in the RGB color-space based on wavelength.
