Images processed with Huygens in the field of Immunology
7-color Cross section image of a Rhesus Macaque lymph node (about 2.0mm X 4.5mm in dimension) showing CD3 (blue), CD4(green), CD8(yellow), PD-1(white), CD20(red), CD56(magenta) and Ki67(cyan). Confocal fluorescent images were acquired using a Leica SP8 microscope (40X/1.30 oil lens) and deconvolved with Huygens software.

Maximum intensity projection of a z-stack through a Drosophila macrophage imaged on a Leica TCS SP8X scanning confocal microscope. Nuclei are DAPI stained (cyan), alpha-tubulin was detected with a primary mouse DM1A antibody and a secondary anti-mouse antibody coupled to Alexa Fluor 488 (magenta (!)), actin was labelled with phalloidin coupled to Alexa Fluor 568 (green (!)). Deconvolution was done using Huygens Essential.

Image of a T lymphocyte crawling taken with a Leica SP8 g-STED. The image is deconvolved with Huygens and the final visual effect was obtained using the Huygens surface rendering tool. Blue shows labelled plasma membrane with a specific lipophilic dye, red represents the actin filaments, and yellow internal cytosolic vesicles.

The image shows a depth coded maximum intensity projection of the lymphatic vessel network in the mouse ear tip. Lymphatic vessels were visualised by whole-mount immunofluorescence staining using an antibody against Podoplanin. A Leica SP8 confocal microscope (10x/0.4 objective) was used to acquire a tile scan of 4x2 tiles while covering the z volume of the whole dermal tissue of the ear tip. Huygens was used to deconvolve the image stack using CMLE and theoretical PSF.

T lymphocyte cells labelled with a lipid marker staining both the cell membrane and cellular comportments (yellow) and a SNAP Tag labelling a membrane protein (green). Confocal z-stack recorded on a Leica SP8 gSTED microscope and deconvolved using Huygens. Visualised using the Huygens surface renderer.
