A system and method of generating and acquiring phase contrast microscope images while minimizing interference with the intensity and optical quality of other microscopy modalities employing polarization and attenuation strategies for phase microscopy applications. A plane polarizing objective phase ring may be used in conjunction with a phase microscopy apparatus. Attenuated light may be controlled such that transparency may be selectively provided with respect to light in a predetermined plane. Illumination outside of the predetermined plane may be selected for phase microscopy applications. Accordingly, a polarizing objective phase ring effective for enabling polarized phase microscopy may reduce interfere with normal usage of the microscope for other applications such as, for example, fluorescence microscopy.
