Image formation in three‐photon fluorescence microscopy

Image formation in three-photon fluorescence microscopy is analysed. The point spread function, three-dimensional optical transfer function and axial resolution are considered. The results are generalized to multiphoton fluorescence. Three-photon fluorescence is particularly amenable to resolution improvement by use of pupil filters.
