Abstract

A method for imaging in a microscope with oblique illumination includes illuminating an object by an illumination beam path that is obliquely incident on an object plane of the microscope. A microscopic image of the object and a corresponding digital image signal are produced. The digital image signal is processed by digital image processing using a convolution kernel to increase contrast. An increased-contrast digital image is produced from the processed digital image signal.
