Abstract
A light sheet microscope, such as an oblique plane microscope or a swept confocally-aligned planar excitation (SCAPE) microscope, includes an optical system with a first optical element, a second optical element and a mirror assembly. In a first operational state of the microscope, the optical system is configured to transmit illumination light along a first illumination light path through the first optical element into a first sample volume, and configured to transmit observation light along a first observation light path from the first sample volume to a detector device. In a second operational state of the microscope, the optical system is configured to transmit the illumination light along a second illumination light path via the mirror assembly through the second optical element into a second sample volume, and configured to transmit observation light along a second observation light path from the second sample volume to the detector device.
