Researchers at Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia (IIT-Italian Institute of Technology) have developed an innovative microscopy ...

Microscopy continues to transform the life sciences. Here are five recent breakthroughs made possible by the technique.

Photoacoustic microscopy (PAM) is an advanced in vivo tissue imaging technique that combines optical and acoustic approaches to overcome the optical diffusion limit. It can produce images with great ...

Light field microscopy (LFM) is an advanced imaging technique that captures four-dimensional light information—comprising both spatial and angular data—to computationally reconstruct three-dimensional ...

The invention that first enabled researchers to see clear images of living cells was the phase-contrast microscope, which won its inventor, Frits Zernike, a Nobel Prize in 1932. Prior to Zernike's ...

Light microscopy is a cornerstone in life sciences technology, having experienced considerable diversification since its inception. This development becomes visible when considering the distinctive ...

Scientists developed a new microscope based on Brillouin scattering -- a phenomenon where light interacts with naturally occurring thermal vibrations within materials, from which their mechanical ...

Even those who maintain that super-resolution microscopy is a powerful tool of biological discovery have admitted that it may have a bit of an image problem. For example, in a recent review, several ...

Researchers from the Optics Group at the Universitat Jaume I in Castellón have managed to correct in real time problems ...

Computational fluorescence microscopy (CFM) requires accurate point spread function (PSF) characterization for high-quality imaging. We propose a sample prior–based PSF decoupling method, where ...

Coherent Corp. has introduced the Axon FL, a new fiber coupling module designed to enhance the versatility of the Axon 920 TPC ultrafast femtosecond laser for Mini2P microscopy applications. This plug ...

Light-sheet microscopy has emerged as a transformative imaging modality that enables rapid, three‐dimensional visualisation of biological specimens with minimal photodamage. By illuminating samples ...
