Large field-of-view (FOV) two-photon microscopy makes it possible to record a large number of neural activities from multiple brain regions simultaneously. However, the larger the field of view, the longer it takes to scan the entire FOV. To increase imaging speed, we have developed open-source software to digitize analogue signals from a photomultiplier tube using a field-programmable gate array (FPGA) at a rate of 3.2 GS/s. By combining this with a newly developed a circular delay-path module for a custom two-photon mesoscope (Diesel2p), we succeeded in simultaneous recording of >10,000 neurons from the entire bilateral dorsal cortex at up to four depths. We also demonstrated large FOV lifetime imaging using the same system. Our modular, open-source FPGA system can be readily integrated into any type of two-photon microscope and will accelerate the biomedical application of multi-scale two-photon imaging in a wide range of pathophysiological investigations.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
