Abstract

The present invention relates in general to microscopy systems and the illumination of target regions of the microscopy system with an annular illumination structure. The annular illumination structure can partially illuminate by quadrant, and can include a plurality of LEDs as light sources located in the annular structure that surround the lens or camera of an optical imaging and capture system.
