Abstract
An example microscope includes a pump laser for providing a first illumination to a sample. A laser array provides a second illumination to the sample. The laser array may include a plurality of laser elements, each providing oblique illuminations to the sample. An illumination collecting source collects the first illumination and the second illumination from the sample. The illumination collecting source may capture transient 3D refractive index (RI) variations in the sample due to the first illumination and second illumination.
