Paper Abstract

The limit on imaging-depth in two-photon microscopy depends on parameters of the imaging system such as available power, wavelength, numerical aperture, and fluorescencecollection field-of-view and on properties of the sample such as scattering and absorption cross-sections and fluorophore distribution. These dependencies are discussed and strategies for optimizing the imaging depth are presented.
