Flowing cells get organelle-level eyes: three structured-light frames plus self-supervised reconstruction reach about 118 nm at up to roughly 720 cells per second
Super-resolution imaging flow cytometry (SR-IFC) brings structured-illumination microscopy into a continuous microfluidic stream: each cell yields only three phase-shifted frames, physical modulation sharpens the flow axis, and a network trained solely on the imaged sample's own data infers the missing transverse detail. On 100 nm fluorescent beads, SR-IFC reached about 118 nm along the flow axis and 110 nm across it, versus 222 to 227 nm for wide-field imaging of the same beads; with a 2048 × 320 pixel readout, the theoretical throughput ceiling is about 720 cells per second.
