A light sheet microscope that combines the eye safety and economy of high etendue light sources like LEDs with the spatial resolution of low etendue light sources like lasers is proposed. Light emission from one or more high etendue sources is optically formed into light sheets whereby images of specimens illuminated by the light sheets provide spectral information. Light one or more low etendue light sources is formed into thinner light sheets to provide images with better spatial information. The light source wavelengths can be selected for improved eye safety. Image fusion synergistically combines the noteworthy spectral information captured from the high etendue light sheets with the exceptional spatial information captured from the low etendue sheet to create more informative images.
