So","George Barbastathis","Renjie Zhou"],"abstract":"Rapid, comprehensive, and accurate cell phenotyping without compromising viability, is crucial to many important biomedical applications, including stem-cell therapy, drug screening, and liquid biopsy. Typical image cytometry methods acquire two-dimensional (2D) fluorescence images, where the fluorescence labelling process may damage living cells, and the information from 2D images is not comprehensive enough for precise cell analysis. Although three-dimensional (3D) label-free image cytometry holds great promise, its high throughput development faces several technical challenges. Here, we report eXpress Single-frame CYtometer through Tomographic phasE (xSCYTE), which reconstructs 3D Refractive Index (RI) maps of cells with diffraction-limited resolution. With these high-speed and high-precision imaging capabilities empowered by artificial intelligence, we envision xSCYTE may open up many new avenues of biomedical investigations and industries, such as multi-omic assays and quality control during cellular therapeutic manufacturing.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2202.03627v2","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2202.03627v2.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"single-frame-label-free-cell-tomography-at","repo_url":"https://github.com/mitgbl/SILACT","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
