Abstract
Hybrid fluorescence and optoacoustic microscopy systems have recently emerged as powerful imaging modalities concurrently capturing both radiative and non-radiative molecular relaxations in biological tissues. Nevertheless, such approaches provide limited information as specimens are imaged exclusively from one side, not permitting the acquisition of their full anatomical, structural, or functional features in multiple views of interest. Herein we present a bimodal optical and optoacoustic multiview (BOOM) cost-efficient microscope operating in the frequency-domain for the comprehensive label-free imaging of established and emerging model organisms. Thus, the capabilities of BOOM microscopy have been proven suitable for highly demanding observations in developmental biology and embryology.
