Abstract
We report a virtual image refocusing framework for fluorescence microscopy, which extends the imaging depth-of-field by ~20-fold and provides improved lateral resolution. This method utilizes point-spread function (PSF) engineering and a cascaded convolutional neural network model, which we termed as W-Net. We tested this W-Net architecture by imaging 50 nm fluorescent nanobeads at various defocus distances using a double-helix PSF, demonstrating ~20-fold improvement in image depth-of-field over conventional wide-field microscopy. W-Net architecture can be used to develop deep-learning-based image reconstruction and computational microscopy techniques that utilize engineered PSFs and can significantly improve the spatial resolution and throughput of fluorescence microscopy.
