Dedicated to Prof D V G L N Rao

This review work is a brief communication introducing an off-axis quantitative phase method and its variation for label-free biomedical microscopy applications. Various setups and concepts were explained and discussed, as well as their biomedical.applications: from quantitative phase to refractive index and dry mass, single cells to large number of cells, stationary to flow geometry, single to multiple wavelengths and full field 2D to 3D. © Anita Publications.
