-The advantage of the diSPIM being dual-sided is that the role of the two objectives can be reversed to collect a second stack from a perpendicular directionThe two optical paths are usually symmetricand are designated Path A and Path B. (The two paths are described in detail in the [[docs:mm_dispim_plugin_user_guide#diSPIM Plugin User Guide]].) Registration and joint deconvolution merge the two datasets for improved resolution isotropy.+ 
 +The core assembly, the SPIM head, can be mounted on various inverted microscopesThus farmicroscope-specific adapter brackets((Attaching the SPIM precludes the use of the transmitted light optics because the brackets utilize the transmitted light pillar mounting point.)) exist for the following microscopes: 
 +  * ASI RAMM frame (<imgref SPIM_Figure>
 +  * Leica DMI-6000 
 +  * Nikon TE-300, Ti, TE-2000, Ti2 
 +  * Olympus IX-71/81, IX-73/83 
 +  * Zeiss Axio-Observer
