Abstract
An image cytometer for capturing and analyzing the image of a sample in the momentum domain. The cytometer is provided with a light source for illuminating a sample with a light beam, an optical transforming system positioned behind the sample in the beam propagation direction for generating the Fourier transform in the space plane, a light sensor array and a spatially selective filter positioned with respect to the optical system such that the Fourier transform is imaged onto the light sensor array.
