TLDR
The digital holographic microscopy is a new imaging technology applied to optical microscopy that yields a 3D volume image from a single image capture.
Abstract
Imaging of microscopic objects is an essential art, especially in life sciences Rapid progress in electronic detection and control, digital imaging, image processing, and numerical computa‐ tion has been crucial in advancing modern microscopy At present the 3D imaging of biological samples is done by confocal microscopes Their ability to image biological events in real time is limited by the time necessary to capture stacks of images taken through a certain plane in cells or tissues from which a 3D view is calculated Digital holographic microscopy is a new imaging technology applied to optical microscopy The digital holographic microscopy is a very advanced imaging technique because it yields a 3D volume image from a single image capture

Implementation of Kirchhoff-Helmholtz transform on GPU for use in digital in-line holographic microscopy

TL;DR: This work explores the evaluation of KHT using GPU at various levels of optimisation, exploiting the symmetries inherent in KHT and optimizations that are specific to the GPU architecture like the lookup tables, scheduling of read/writes.

Recent Advances in the Application of Digital Holographic Microscopy

TL;DR: Digital holographic microscopy (DIHM) as discussed by the authors is a technique by which a wavefront can be recorded and subsequently reconstructed in the absence of the original wavefront, by replacing photochemical procedures with electronic recording of a hologram and its digital reconstruction, a wide range of new imaging capabilities become available.
