Abstract Despite the crucial importance of dynamic membrane protrusions for understanding phagocytosis, cellular communication and mechanobiology, current imaging modalities struggle to quantitatively track their real-time, 3D spatiotemporal dynamics with sufficient molecular specificity and minimal perturbation. Many membrane protrusions studies still utilize confocal microscopy where its axial resolution and high phototoxicity remains a key limiting factor for live axial imaging.

Abstract Incuscopes, incubator-compatible microscopes, are crucial for live single-cell imaging studies that spans several hours to days. However, traditional microscopy prioritize high-resolution imaging performance over throughput, neglecting efficient live-cell image sampling. This study challenges existing spatial bandwidth product (field of view/optical resolution) criteria for image sampling for live cells.
