Confocal microscopy is a powerful technology for visualizing multiparameter cellular and molecular phenomena. Researchers increasingly seek to expand the number of fluorophores for real-time analysis, ...

It is the computational processing of images that reveals the finest details of a sample placed under all kinds of different light microscopes. Even though this processing has come a long way, there ...

In the mid-1950s, Princeton University researcher Marvin Minsky sought a way to increase signal-to-noise when imaging central nervous system samples. Because CNS tissue is very dense and scatters ...

Researchers have incorporated a swept illumination source into an open-top light-sheet microscope to enable improved optical sectioning over a larger area of view. The advance makes the technique more ...

UIUC's platform, christened Stomata In-Sight, combines laser scanning confocal microscopy, gas exchange instruments and machine-learning image analysis, to simultaneously observe anatomical ...
