Refocusing after Scanning using Helical phase engineering (RESCH) microscopy has previously been demonstrated to provide volumetric information from a single 2D scan. However, the practical application of this method is challenging due to its limited image acquisition speed and spatial resolution. Here, we report on a combination of RESCH and multifocal structured illumination microscopy (MSIM) to improve the image acquisition speed and spatial resolution. A phase mask is introduced to modulate the conventional point spread function (PSF) to the double-helix PSF (DH-PSF), which provides volumetric information, and meanwhile, sparse multifocal illumination patterns are generated by a digital micromirror device (DMD) for parallel 3D subdiffractive imaging information acquisition. We also present a strategy for processing the collected raw data with a Richardson-Lucy deconvolution and pixel reassignment algorithm to improve the spatial resolution of the depth estimation and imaging performance. The proposed 3D image scanning microscopy can record 3D specimen information and the corresponding depth information from a single multi-spot 2D planar scan, which ensures faster data acquisition, larger field of view, and higher spatial resolution than RESCH. Finally, we demonstrate the capability of our system with actual experiments.

Transmission electron microscopy, especially at cryogenic temperature, is largely used for studying biological macromolecular complexes. A main difficulty of TEM imaging of biological samples is the weak amplitude contrasts due to electron diffusion on light elements that compose biological organisms. Achieving high-resolution reconstructions implies therefore the acquisition of a huge number of TEM micrographs followed by a time-consuming image analysis.

This paper investigates heritage climatology through global analysis of damage functions for collections, aiming to learn about the reliability of these functions and the field itself. It addresses the growing interest in geospatial analysis of climate hazards for cultural heritage, proposing parameters that refine climate-related deterioration processes. Using global daily climate data from 1991 to 2020, the study assesses damage functions reliant on temperature and relative humidity inputs, including damage functions for paper and metals, alongside indices for humidity fluctuations and mould growth.

Thermal transport in nanostructures plays a critical role in modern technologies. As devices shrink, techniques that can measure thermal properties at nanometer and nanosecond scales are increasingly needed to capture transient, out-of-equilibrium phenomena. We present a novel pump-probe photon-electron method within a scanning transmission electron microscope (STEM) to map temperature dynamics with unprecedented spatial and temporal resolutions.

This review focused on mass spectrometry imaging (MSI), a powerful tool in food analysis, covering its ion source schemes and procedures and their applications in food quality, safety, and nutrition to provide detailed insights into these aspects. The review presented a detailed introduction to both commonly used and emerging ionization sources, including nanoparticle laser desorption/ionization (NPs-LDI), air flow-assisted ionization (AFAI), desorption ionization with through-hole alumina membrane (DIUTHAME), plasma-assisted laser desorption ionization (PALDI), and low-temperature plasma (LTP). In the MSI process, particular emphasis was placed on quantitative MSI (QMSI) and super-resolution algorithms.

Bone is a multifaceted tissue requiring orchestrated interplays of diverse cells within specialized microenvironments. Although significant progress has been made in understanding cellular and molecular mechanisms of component cells of bone, revealing their spatial organization and interactions in native bone tissue microenvironment is crucial for advancing precision medicine, as they govern fundamental signaling pathways and functional dependencies among various bone cells. In this study, we present the first integrative high-resolution map of human bone and bone marrow, using spatial and single-cell transcriptomics profiling from femoral tissue.
