Abstract
A method for acquiring microscope-images of sample being larger than a field of view of a microscope, the method comprising creating a continuous relative movement between a sample and the microscope, wherein the optical axis of a microscope objective is substantially perpendicular to the vector of the relative movement, illuminating a part of the sample through the microscope objective, wherein the illuminated part of the sample is smaller than the field of view and forms an illumination slit, moving the illumination slit in a scanning direction across the field of view, and detecting light from the sample collected by the microscope objective, wherein the sample is moved in the same direction as the scanning direction or in a direction perpendicular to the scanning direction while the illumination slit is moved across the field of view.
