Provided herein is a method and system for imaging a biological sample. The method may include scanning a biological sample using one or more light sheets, where the biological sample is in a field of view of a microscope that includes an objective and a direction of observation of the objective defines a z-axis, where a point spread function of the microscope is elongated in the z-axial direction, and the biological sample is at a z-axial distance from the objective, thereby illuminating a plurality of z-axial slices of the biological sample, and recording a plurality of images corresponding to a plurality of z-axial slices of the sample, where the images are generated by light patterns emitted from the scanned biological sample, thereby generating an image stack that includes a plurality of images of the biological sample. |
