| 摘要 |
A method and apparatus for monitoring biological samples. The apparatus comprises an incubator within which are mounted at least two CCD mini-cameras adapted for photomicroscopy as mini-photomicroscopes. The apparatus may be configured for time-lapse photomicroscopy, transmission photomicroscopy, reflection photomicroscopy, epifluorescence photomicroscopy, or infrared photomicroscopy. 3D images are acquired by focusing the mini-photomicroscopes on successive focal image planes in the biological samples. The mini-photomicroscopes may be focused on separate samples, on different portions of the same sample, or on the same portion of the same sample.
