-  * No scan (fixed sheet): neither the piezo nor light sheet moves; useful for characterizing vibration in the system+  * No scan (fixed sheet): none of the piezo nor light sheet nor the stage moves (only the light sheet generation using the sheet axis); useful for characterizing vibration in the system
   * Stage scan: uses the XY stage to move the sample through a fixed light sheet; for two-sided acquisitions, one view is collected in the first pass, and the second view is collected as the stage moves “back” for a second pass; see the document on stage scanning for details and requirements   * Stage scan: uses the XY stage to move the sample through a fixed light sheet; for two-sided acquisitions, one view is collected in the first pass, and the second view is collected as the stage moves “back” for a second pass; see the document on stage scanning for details and requirements
   * Stage scan interleaved: same as stage scan except that the stage moves half as fast and the two light paths alternate, meaning both views are collected in the same pass; use caution if you are using a galvo to switch the laser between the sides, this can overstress some galvos   * Stage scan interleaved: same as stage scan except that the stage moves half as fast and the two light paths alternate, meaning both views are collected in the same pass; use caution if you are using a galvo to switch the laser between the sides, this can overstress some galvos
