Abstract
Patient-derived tumor organoids have emerged as a crucial tool for assessing the efficacy of chemotherapy and conducting preclinical drug screenings. However, the conventional histological investigation of these organoids necessitates their devitalization through fixation and slicing, limiting their utility to a single-time analysis. Here, we use stimulated Raman histology (SRH) to demonstrate non-destructive, label-free virtual staining of 3D organoids, while preserving their viability and growth. This novel approach provides contrast similar to conventional staining methods, allowing for the continuous monitoring of organoids over time. Our results demonstrate that SRH transforms organoids from one-time use products into repeatable models, facilitating the efficient selection of effective drug combinations. This advancement holds promise for personalized cancer treatment, allowing for the dynamic assessment and optimization of chemotherapy treatments in patient-specific contexts.

Abstract
Raman spectroscopy was used to study the complex interactions and morphogenesis of the green seaweed Ulva (Chlorophyta) and its associated bacteria under controlled conditions in a reductionist model system. Integrating multiple imaging techniques contributes to a more comprehensive understanding of these biological processes. Therefore, Raman spectroscopy was introduced as a non-invasive, label-free tool for examining chemical information of the tripartite community Ulva mutabilis-Roseovarius sp.-Maribacter sp. The study explored cell differentiation, cell wall protrusion, and bacterial-macroalgae interactions of intact algal thalli. Using Raman spectroscopy, the analysis of the CHx-stretching wavenumber region distinguished spatial regions in Ulva germination and cellular malformations under axenic conditions and upon inoculation with a specific bacterium in bipartite communities. The spectral information was used to guide in-depth analyses within the fingerprint region and to identify substance classes such as proteins, lipids, and polysaccharides, including evidence for ulvan found in cell wall protrusions.

Abstract
Surgical pathology workflow involves multiple labor-intensive steps, such as tissue removal, fixation, embedding, sectioning, staining, and microscopic examination. This process is time-consuming and costly and requires skilled technicians. In certain clinical scenarios, such as intraoperative consultations, there is a need for faster histologic evaluation to provide real-time surgical guidance. Currently, frozen section techniques involving hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining are used for intraoperative pathology consultations. However, these techniques have limitations, including a turnaround time of 20 to 30 minutes, staining artifacts, and potential tissue loss, negatively impacting accurate diagnosis. To address these challenges, researchers are exploring alternative optical imaging modalities for rapid microscopic tissue imaging. These modalities differ in optical characteristics, tissue preparation requirements, imaging equipment, and output image quality and format. Some of these imaging methods have been combined with computational algorithms to generate H&E-like images, which could greatly facilitate their adoption by pathologists. Here, we provide a comprehensive, organ-specific review of the latest advancements in emerging imaging modalities applied to nonfixed human tissue. We focused on studies that generated H&E-like images evaluated by pathologists. By presenting up-to-date research progress and clinical utility, this review serves as a valuable resource for scholars and clinicians, covering some of the major technical developments in this rapidly evolving field. It also offers insights into the potential benefits and drawbacks of alternative imaging modalities and their implications for improving patient care.

Abstract
Histopathology has remained a cornerstone for biomedical tissue assessment for over a century, with a resource-intensive workflow involving biopsy or excision, gross examination, sampling, tissue processing to snap frozen or formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded blocks, sectioning, staining, optical imaging, and microscopic assessment. Emerging chemical imaging approaches, including stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) microscopy, can directly measure inherent molecular composition in tissue (thereby dispensing with the need for tissue processing, sectioning, and using dyes) and can use artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms to provide high-quality images. Here we show the integration of SRS microscopy in a pathology workflow to rapidly record chemical information from minimally processed fresh-frozen prostate tissue. Instead of using thin sections, we record data from intact thick tissues and use optical sectioning to generate images from multiple planes. We use a deep learning–based processing pipeline to generate virtual hematoxylin and eosin images. Next, we extend the computational method to generate archival-quality images in minutes, which are equivalent to those obtained from hours/days-long formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded processing. We assessed the quality of images from the perspective of enabling pathologists to make decisions, demonstrating that the virtual stained image quality was diagnostically useful and the interpathologist agreement on prostate cancer grade was not impacted. Finally, because this method does not wash away lipids and small molecules, we assessed the utility of lipid chemical composition in determining grade. Together, the combination of chemical imaging and AI provides novel capabilities for rapid assessments in pathology by reducing the complexity and burden of current workflows. SIGNIFICANCE Archival-quality (formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded), thin-section diagnostic images are obtained from thick-cut, fresh-frozen prostate tissues without dyes or stains to expedite cancer histopathology by combining SRS microscopy and machine learning.

Abstract
Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining, the century-old technique, has been the gold standard tool for pathologists to detect anomalies in tissues and diseases such as cancer. H&E staining is a cumbersome, time-consuming process that delays and wastes precious minutes during an intraoperative diagnosis. However, even in the modern era, real-time label-free imaging techniques such as simultaneous label-free autofluorescence multiharmonic (SLAM) microscopy have delivered several more layers of information to characterize a tissue with high precision. Still, they have yet to translate to the clinic. The slow translation rate can be attributed to the lack of direct comparisons between the old and new techniques. Our approach to solving this problem is to: 1) reduce dimensions by pre-sectioning the tissue in 500 μm slices, and 2) produce fiducial laser markings which appear in both SLAM and histological imaging. High peak-power femtosecond laser pulses enable ablation in a controlled and contained manner. We perform laser marking on a grid of points encompassing the SLAM region of interest. We optimize laser power, numerical aperture, and timing to produce axially extended marking, hence multilayered fiducial markers, with minimal damage to the surrounding tissues. We performed this co-registration over an area of 3 × 3 mm2 of freshly excised mouse kidney and intestine, followed by standard H&E staining. Reduced dimensionality and the use of laser markings provided a comparison of the old and new techniques, giving a wealth of correlative information and elevating the potential of translating nonlinear microscopy to the clinic for rapid pathological assessment.

Abstract
Spectral focusing is a well-established technique for increasing spectral resolution in coherent Raman scattering microscopy. However, current methods for tuning optical chirp in setups using spectral focusing, such as glass rods, gratings, and prisms, are very cumbersome, time-consuming to use, and difficult to align, all of which limit more widespread use of the spectral focusing technique. Here, we report a stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) configuration which can rapidly tune optical chirp by utilizing compact adjustable-dispersion TIH53 glass blocks. By varying the height of the blocks, the number of bounces in the blocks and therefore path length of the pulses through the glass can be quickly modulated, allowing for a convenient method of adjusting chirp with almost no necessary realignment. To demonstrate the flexibility of this configuration, we characterize our system's signal-to-noise ratio and spectral resolution at different chirp values and perform imaging in both the carbon-hydrogen stretching region (MCF-7 cells) and fingerprint region (prostate cores). Our findings show that adjustable-dispersion glass blocks allow the user to effortlessly modify their optical system to suit their imaging requirements. These blocks can be used to significantly simplify and miniaturize experimental configurations utilizing spectral focusing.

Abstract
Focal therapy (FT) has been proposed as an approach to eradicate clinically significant prostate cancer while preserving the normal surrounding tissues to minimize treatment-related toxicity. Rapid histology of core needle biopsies is essential to ensure the precise FT for localized lesions and to determine tumor grades. However, it is difficult to achieve both high accuracy and speed with currently available histopathology methods. Here, we demonstrated that stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) microscopy could reveal the largely heterogeneous histologic features of fresh prostatic biopsy tissues in a label-free and near real-time manner. A diagnostic convolutional neural network (CNN) built based on images from 61 patients could classify Gleason patterns of prostate cancer with an accuracy of 85.7%. An additional 22 independent cases introduced as external test dataset validated the CNN performance with 84.4% accuracy. Gleason scores of core needle biopsies from 21 cases were calculated using the deep learning SRS system and showed a 71% diagnostic consistency with grading from three pathologists. This study demonstrates the potential of a deep learning-assisted SRS platform in evaluating the tumor grade of prostate cancer, which could help simplify the diagnostic workflow and provide timely histopathology compatible with FT treatment. SIGNIFICANCE A platform combining stimulated Raman scattering microscopy and a convolutional neural network provides rapid histopathology and automated Gleason scoring on fresh prostate core needle biopsies without complex tissue processing.

Abstract
A stimulated Raman microscope is conventionally performed by modulating either the pump or Stokes beam and demodulating the other. Here, we propose a double modulation scheme that modulates both beams at fm and 2fm. Exploiting aliasing and reduction of the repetition rate, we show that the proposed double modulation scheme amplifies the signal amplitude by a factor of 1.5, 2, and 4 for different modulation frequencies and experimental realizations for the same average power at the sample. By deriving the noise power for different sources, we show that the double modulation scheme can perform stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) imaging with an up to 16-fold speed improvement as compared with single beam modulation.

Abstract
A frequency modulation (FM) scheme for stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) is presented with a single fiber-based light source. Pulse-to-pulse wavelength-switching allows real-time subtraction of parasitic signals leaving only the resonant SRS signal with a noise reduction of up to 30 % compared to digital subtraction schemes, leading effectively to a contrast improvement by a factor of up to 8.3. The wide tuning range of the light source from 1500 cm-1 to 3000 cm-1 and the possibility to separately adjust the resonant and the nonresonant wavenumber for every specimen allow to investigate a variety of samples with high contrast and high signal-to-noise ratio, e. g., for medical diagnostics.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Intra-operative stimulated Raman histology (SRH) is a novel technology that uses laser spectroscopy and color-matching algorithms to create images similar to the formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) section. We aim to assess the accuracy of SRH in a novel range of sinonasal and skull base tumors. METHODS Select patients undergoing sinonasal and skull base surgery using the Invenio Imaging™ Nio™ Laser Imaging SRH system between June 2020 and September 2021 were assessed. The SRH images were reviewed for pathologic features similar to frozen section (FS) and FFPE. Time taken for results and diagnostic concordance was assessed. RESULTS Sixty-seven SRH images from 7 tumor types in 12 patients were assessed. Pathologies included squamous cell carcinoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, inverted papilloma, adenoid cystic carcinoma, SMARCB1-deficient sinonasal carcinoma, mucosal melanoma, metastatic colonic adenocarcinoma, and meningioma. Tumor was identified in 100% of lesional specimens, with characteristic diagnostic features readily appreciable on SRH. Median time for diagnosis was significantly faster for SRH (4.3 min) versus FS (44.5 min; p = <.0001). Where SRH sample site matched precisely to FS (n = 32/67, 47.8%), the same diagnosis was confirmed in 93.8%. Sensitivity, specificity, precision, and overall accuracy of SRH were 93.3%, 94.1%, 93.8%, and 93.3%, respectively. Near-perfect concordance was seen between SRH and FS (Cohen's kappa [κ] = 0.89). CONCLUSION Stimulated Raman histology can rapidly produce images similar to FFPE H&E in sinonasal and skull base tumors. This technology has the potential to act as an adjunct or alternative to standard FS. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 4 Laryngoscope, 132:2142-2147, 2022.

Instant diagnosis of gastroscopic biopsy via deep-learned single-shot femtosecond stimulated Raman histology. Nat Commun 2022; 13:4050.

Abstract
Gastroscopic biopsy provides the only effective method for gastric cancer diagnosis, but the gold standard histopathology is time-consuming and incompatible with gastroscopy. Conventional stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) microscopy has shown promise in label-free diagnosis on human tissues, yet it requires the tuning of picosecond lasers to achieve chemical specificity at the cost of time and complexity. Here, we demonstrate that single-shot femtosecond SRS (femto-SRS) reaches the maximum speed and sensitivity with preserved chemical resolution by integrating with U-Net. Fresh gastroscopic biopsy is imaged in <60 s, revealing essential histoarchitectural hallmarks perfectly agreed with standard histopathology. Moreover, a diagnostic neural network (CNN) is constructed based on images from 279 patients that predicts gastric cancer with accuracy >96%. We further demonstrate semantic segmentation of intratumor heterogeneity and evaluation of resection margins of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) tissues to simulate rapid and automated intraoperative diagnosis. Our method holds potential for synchronizing gastroscopy and histopathological diagnosis. Diagnosis of gastric cancer currently requires gastroscopic biopsy, which requires time and expertize to perform. Here, the authors demonstrate a femto-SRS imaging method which showed high accuracy in diagnosing gastric cancer without the need for pathologistbased diagnosis.

Abstract
We present a shot-noise limited SRS implementation providing a >200 mW per excitation wavelength that is optimized for addressing two molecular vibrations simultaneously. As the key to producing a 3 ps laser of different colors out of a single fs-laser (15 nm FWHM), we use ultra-steep angle-tunable optical filters to extract 2 narrow-band Stokes laser beams (1-2 nm & 1-2 ps), which are separated by 100 cm-1. The center part of the fs-laser is frequency doubled to pump an optical parametric oscillator (OPO). The temporal width of the OPO's output (1 ps) is matched to the Stokes beams and can be tuned from 650-980 nm to address simultaneously two Raman shifts separated by 100 cm-1 that are located between 500 cm-1 and 5000 cm-1. We demonstrate background-free SRS imaging of C-D labeled biological samples (bacteria and Drosophila). Furthermore, high quality virtual stimulated Raman histology imaging of a brain adenocarcinoma is shown for pixel dwell times of 16 µs.

Abstract
We present multi-color imaging by stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) enabled by an ultrafast fiber-based light source with integrated amplitude modulation and frame-to-frame wavelength tuning. With a relative intensity noise level of -153.7 dBc/Hz at 20.25 MHz the light source is well suited for SRS imaging and outperforms other fiber-based light source concepts for SRS imaging. The light source is tunable in under 5 ms per arbitrary wavelength step between 700 cm-1 and 3200 cm-1, which allows for addressing Raman resonances from the fingerprint to the CH-stretch region. Moreover, the compact and environmentally stable system is predestined for fast multi-color assessments of medical or rapidly evolving samples with high chemical specificity, paving the way for diagnostics and sensing outside of specialized laser laboratories.

Abstract
Coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS), a nonlinear optical method for rapid visualization of biological objects, represents a progressive tool in biology and medicine to explore cells and tissue structures in living systems and biopsies. In this study, we report efficient nonresonant CARS imaging of silicon nanoparticles (SiNPs) in human cells as a proof of concept. As both bulk and porous silicon exhibit a high third-order nonlinear susceptibility, χ(3), which is responsible for the CARS intensity, it is possible to visualize the SiNPs without specific labels. Porous and solid SiNPs were obtained from layers of porous and nonporous silicon nanowires and mesoporous silicon. Electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy showed that porous SiNPs consisted of ∼3 nm silicon nanocrystals (nc-Si) and pores, whereas solid nanoparticles comprised ∼30 nm nc-Si. All types of SiNPs were nontoxic at concentrations up to 500 μg/mL after 24 h of incubation with cells. We demonstrated that although nc-Si possesses a distinguished narrow Raman band of about 520 cm-1, it is possible to detect a high CARS signal from SiNPs in the epi-direction even in a nonresonant regime. 3D CARS images showed that all types of studied SiNPs were visualized as bright spots inside the cytoplasm of cells after 3-6 h of incubation because of the contrast provided by the high third-order nonlinear susceptibility of SiNPs, which is 1 × 104 to 1 × 105 times higher than that of water and typical biological media. Overall, CARS microscopy can provide localization of SiNPs within biological structures at the cellular level and can be a powerful tool for in vitro monitoring of silicon-based drug delivery systems or use SiNPs as labels to monitor various bioprocesses inside living cells.

Abstract
Second harmonic generation (SHG) microscopy has emerged over the past two decades as a powerful tool for tissue characterization and diagnostics. Its main applications in medicine are related to mapping the collagen architecture of in-vivo, ex-vivo and fixed tissues based on endogenous contrast. In this work we present how H&E staining of excised and fixed tissues influences the extraction and use of image parameters specific to polarization-resolved SHG (PSHG) microscopy, which are known to provide quantitative information on the collagen structure and organization. We employ a theoretical collagen model for fitting the experimental PSHG datasets to obtain the second order susceptibility tensor elements ratios and the fitting efficiency. Furthermore, the second harmonic intensity acquired under circular polarization is investigated. The evolution of these parameters in both forward- and backward-collected SHG are computed for both H&E-stained and unstained tissue sections. Consistent modifications are observed between the two cases in terms of the fitting efficiency and the second harmonic intensity. This suggests that similar quantitative analysis workflows applied to PSHG images collected on stained and unstained tissues could yield different results, and hence affect the diagnostic accuracy.

Abstract
Frequency modulation (FM) coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) is presented, using a compact as well as fast and widely tunable fiber-based light source. With this light source, Raman resonances between 700cm-1 and 3200cm-1 can be addressed via wavelength tuning within only 5 ms, which allows for FM CARS measurements with frame-to-frame wavelength switching. Moreover, the functionality for high-sensitivity FM CARS measurements was integrated by means of fiber optics to keep a stable and reliable operation. The light source accomplished FM CARS measurements with a 40 times enhanced sensitivity at a lock-in amplifier (LIA) bandwidth of 1 Hz. For fast imaging with frame-to-frame wavelength switching at a LIA bandwidth of 1 MHz, an 18-fold contrast enhancement could be verified, making this light source ideal for routine and out-of-lab FM CARS measurements for medical diagnostics or environmental sensing.

Abstract
Ninety-four years have passed since the discovery of the Raman effect, and there are currently more than 25 different types of Raman-based techniques. The past two decades have witnessed the blossoming of Raman spectroscopy as a powerful physicochemical technique with broad applications within the life sciences. In this review, we critique the use of Raman spectroscopy as a tool for quantitative metabolomics. We overview recent developments of Raman spectroscopy for identification and quantification of disease biomarkers in liquid biopsies, with a focus on the recent advances within surface-enhanced Raman scattering-based methods. Ultimately, we discuss the applications of imaging modalities based on Raman scattering as label-free methods to study the abundance and distribution of biomolecules in cells and tissues, including mammalian, algal, and bacterial cells.

Abstract
Abstract
Coherent Raman scattering (CRS) processes, including both the coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering and stimulated Raman scattering, have been utilized in state-of-the-art microscopy platforms for chemical imaging of biological samples. The key advantage of CRS microscopy over fluorescence microscopy is label-free, which is an attractive characteristic for modern biological and medical sciences. Besides, CRS has other advantages such as higher selectivity to metabolites, no photobleaching, and narrow peak width. These features have brought fast-growing attention to CRS microscopy in biological research. In this review article, we will first briefly introduce the history of CRS microscopy, and then explain the theoretical background of the CRS processes in detail using the classical approach. Next, we will cover major instrumentation techniques of CRS microscopy. Finally, we will enumerate examples of recent applications of CRS imaging in biological and medical sciences.

Abstract
Inspired by the revolutionary impact of super-resolution fluorescence microscopy, super-resolution Raman imaging has been long pursued because of its much higher chemical specificity than the fluorescence counterpart. However, vibrational contrasts are intrinsically less sensitive compared with fluorescence, resulting in only mild resolution enhancement beyond the diffraction limit even with strong laser excitation power. As such, it is still a great challenge to achieve biocompatible super-resolution vibrational imaging in the optical far-field. In 2019 Stimulated Raman Excited Fluorescence (SREF) was discovered as an ultrasensitive vibrational spectroscopy that combines the high chemical specificity of Raman scattering and the superb sensitivity of fluorescence detection. Herein we developed a novel super-resolution vibrational imaging method by harnessing SREF as the contrast mechanism. We first identified the undesired role of anti-Stokes fluorescence background in preventing direct adoption of super-resolution fluorescence technique. We then devised a frequency-modulation (FM) strategy to remove the broadband backgrounds and achieved high-contrast SREF imaging. Assisted by newly synthesized SREF dyes, we realized multicolor FM-SREF imaging with nanometer spectral resolution. Finally, by integrating stimulated emission depletion (STED) with background-free FM-SREF, we accomplished high-contrast super-resolution vibrational imaging with STED-FM-SREF whose spatial resolution is only determined by the signal-to-noise ratio. In our proof-of-principle demonstration, more than two times of resolution improvement is achieved in biological systems with moderate laser excitation power, which shall be further refined with optimized instrumentation and imaging probes. With its super resolution, high sensitivity, vibrational contrast, and mild laser excitation power, STED-FM-SREF microscopy is envisioned to aid a wide variety of applications.

Abstract
Stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) microscopy has emerged in the last decade as a powerful optical imaging technology with high chemical selectivity, speed, and subcellular resolution. Since the invention of SRS microscopy, it has been extensively employed in life science to study composition, structure, metabolism, development, and disease in biological systems. Applications of SRS in research and the clinic have generated new insights in many fields including neurobiology, tumor biology, developmental biology, metabolomics, pharmacokinetics, and more. Herein we review the advances and applications of SRS microscopy imaging in tissues and animals, as well as envision future applications and development of SRS imaging in life science and medicine.

Abstract
Stimulated Raman histopathology (SRH) utilises the intrinsic vibrational properties of lipids, proteins and nucleic acids to generate contrast providing rapid image acquisition that allows visualisation of histopathological features. It is currently being trialled in the intraoperative setting, where the ability to image unprocessed samples rapidly and with high resolution offers several potential advantages over the use of conventional haematoxylin and eosin stained images. Here we review recent advances in the field including new updates in instrumentation and computer aided diagnosis. We also discuss how other non-linear modalities can be used to provide additional diagnostic contrast which together pave the way for enhanced histopathology and open up possibilities for in vivo pathology.

Abstract
Many lower gastrointestinal diseases are associated with altered mechanical movement and deformation of the large intestine, i.e., the colon and rectum. The leading reason for patients' visits to gastrointestinal clinics is visceral pain, which is reliably evoked by mechanical distension rather than non-mechanical stimuli such as inflammation or heating. The macroscopic biomechanics of the large intestine were characterized by mechanical tests and the microscopic by imaging the load-bearing constituents, i.e., intestinal collagen and muscle fibers. Regions with high mechanical stresses in the large intestine (submucosa and muscularis propria) coincide with locations of submucosal and myenteric neural plexuses, indicating a functional interaction between intestinal structural biomechanics and enteric neurons. In this review, we systematically summarized experimental evidence on the macro- and micro-scale biomechanics of the colon and rectum in both health and disease. We reviewed the heterogeneous mechanical properties of the colon and rectum and surveyed the imaging methods applied to characterize collagen fibers in the intestinal wall. We also discussed the presence of extrinsic and intrinsic neural tissues within different layers of the colon and rectum. This review provides a foundation for further advancements in intestinal biomechanics by synergistically studying the interplay between tissue biomechanics and enteric neurons.

Abstract
The fidelity of stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) microscopy images is impaired by artifacts such as thermal lensing, cross-phase modulation and multi-photon absorption. These artifacts affect differently the stimulated Raman loss (SRL) and stimulated Raman gain (SRG) channels making SRL and SRG image comparisons attractive to identify and correct SRS image artifacts. To provide answer to the question: "Can I trust my SRS images?", we designed a novel, but straightforward SRS scheme that enables the dectection of the stimulated Raman gain and loss (SRGAL) simultaneously at the same pixel level. As an advantage over the conventional SRS imaging scheme, SRGAL doubles the SRS signal by acquiring both SRL as well as SRG and allows for the identification of SRS artifacts and their reduction via a balanced summation of the SRL and SRG images.

Abstract
Stimulated Raman Scattering (SRS) imaging can be hampered by non-resonant parasitic signals that lead to imaging artifacts and eventually overwhelm the Raman signal of interest. Stimulated Raman gain opposite loss detection (SRGOLD) is a three-beam excitation scheme capable of suppressing this nonlinear background while enhancing the resonant Raman signal. We present here a compact electro-optical system for SRGOLD excitation which conveniently exploits the idler beam generated by an optical parametric oscillator (OPO). We demonstrate its successful application for background suppressed SRS imaging in the fingerprint region. This system constitutes a simple and valuable add-on for standard coherent Raman laser sources since it enables flexible excitation and background suppression in SRS imaging.

Abstract
Being able to image chemical bonds with high sensitivity and speed, stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) microscopy has made a major impact in biomedical optics. However, it is well known that the standard SRS microscopy suffers from various backgrounds, limiting the achievable contrast, quantification and sensitivity. While many frequency-modulation (FM) SRS schemes have been demonstrated to retrieve the sharp vibrational contrast, they often require customized laser systems and/or complicated laser pulse shaping or introduce additional noise, thereby hindering wide adoption. Herein we report a simple but robust strategy for FM-SRS microscopy based on a popular commercial laser system and regular optics. Harnessing self-phase modulation induced self-balanced spectral splitting of picosecond Stokes beam propagating in standard single-mode silica fibers, a high-performance FM-SRS system is constructed without introducing any additional signal noise. Our strategy enables adaptive spectral resolution for background-free SRS imaging of Raman modes with different linewidths. The generality of our method is demonstrated on a variety of Raman modes with effective suppressing of backgrounds including non-resonant cross phase modulation and electronic background from two-photon absorption or pump-probe process. As such, our method is promising to be adopted by the SRS microscopy community for background-free chemical imaging.

Abstract
We report the fabrication and characterization of the first double clad tubular anti-resonant hollow core fiber. It allows to deliver ultrashort pulses without temporal nor spectral distortions in the 700-1000 nm wavelength range and to efficiently collect scattered light in a high numerical aperture double clad. The output fiber mode is shaped with a silica microsphere generating a photonic nanojet, making it well suitable for nonlinear microendoscopy application. Additionally, we provide an open access software allowing to find optimal drawing parameters for the fabrication of tubular hollow core fibers.

Abstract
We present for the first time one-to-one correspondence between standard hematoxylin/eosin (H&E) stained tissue sections and stimulated Raman histology (SRH) - a label-free technique in which stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) and second harmonic generation (SHG) are combined to generate virtual H&E images. Experiments were performed on both human thin cryogenic slides from the gastrointestinal tract (GI) and thick freshly excised biopsies from endoscopic surgery. Results on cryogenic slides evidenced an excellent agreement between SRH and H&E images while the ones on biopsies established the relevance of SRH for rapid intraoperative histology to assist in surgical decision making.
