COMPACT SCANNER ASSEMBLY WITH A RESONANT SCANNER AND TWO GALVANOMETER SCANNERS FOR MULTI REGION OF INTEREST (MROI) IMAGING AND TARGETING OF INTACT TISSUE
Provided herein are apparatuses and methods using a compact scanner assembly for multi region of interest (MROI) imaging and targeting of an intact tissue sample. The compact scanner assembly for MROI imaging, comprises a set of three electromagnetically actuated scanning mirrors, the first comprising a resonant scanner (R) driven at its resonant frequency, the second comprising a galvanometer scanner (G1) having a mirror (m1), the third comprising a galvanometer scanner (G2) having a mirror (m2), wherein the galvanometer scanners (G1) and (G2) are driven by a lower bandwidth control signal specifying an angle for mirror (m1) and (m2), wherein the scanners are arranged sequentially as (R) (G1) (G2), wherein the set of three scanning mirrors are within a single scanner assembly (RGG), wherein the compact scanner assembly for MROI combines raster scanning with random-access scanning to target multiple ROIs for targeting and imaging.
