Multi-immersion open-top light-sheet microscope for high-throughput imaging of cleared tissues

Recent advances in optical clearing and light-sheet microscopy have provided unprecedented access to structural and molecular information from intact tissues. However, current light-sheet microscopes have imposed constraints on the size, shape, number of specimens, and compatibility with various clearing protocols. Here we present a multi-immersion open-top light-sheet microscope that enables simple mounting of multiple specimens processed with a variety of protocols, which will facilitate wider adoption by preclinical researchers and clinical laboratories. One Sentence Summary Glaser et al. describe a multi-immersion open-top light-sheet microscope that enables simple and high-throughput imaging of large numbers of preclinical and clinical specimens prepared with a variety of clearing protocols.
