An Omni-Mesoscope for multiscale high-throughput quantitative phase imaging of cellular dynamics and high-content molecular characterization

The mesoscope has emerged as a powerful imaging tool in biomedical research, yet its high cost and low resolution have limited its broader application. Here, we introduce the Omni-Mesoscope, a high-spatial-temporal and multimodal mesoscopic imaging platform built from cost-efficient off-the-shelf components. This system uniquely merges the capabilities of label-free quantitative phase microscopy to capture live-cell morpho-dynamics across thousands of cells with highly multiplexed fluorescence imaging for comprehensive molecular characterization. This Omni-Mesoscope offers a mesoscale field of view of approximately 5 mm² with a high spatial resolution down to 700 nm, enabling the capture of detailed sub-cellular features. We demonstrate its capability in delineating molecular characteristics underlying rare morpho-dynamic cellular phenomena, including cancer cell responses to chemotherapy and the emergence of polyploidy in drug-resistant cells. We also integrate expansion technique to e..., , , # An Omni-Mesoscope for multiscale high-throughput quantitative phase imaging of cellular dynamics and high-content molecular characterization
