Biologists are very interested in how proteins, lipids and other compounds are organized and interact in systems. Very few organizational details can be gained by using standard transmission-based ...

Computational fluorescence microscopy (CFM) requires accurate point spread function (PSF) characterization for high-quality ...

Confocal microscopy is a specialized fluorescence imaging technique that scientists use to acquire images at greater resolution than conventional microscopy. 1 In addition to scanning the lateral x ...

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

The quality of the data obtained from fluorescence imaging studies depends on the system of components used to acquire, analyze, and process the fluorescent images. As an alternative to building a ...

Researchers have reported a sample-prior-based approach to point spread function decoupling that improves system ...

An international collaboration of researchers developed two new complementary approaches for versatile but precise light intensity measurements in fluorescence imaging systems. Accurate measurements ...

Using a tiny, spherical glass lens sandwiched between two brass plates, the 17th-century Dutch microscopist Antonie van Leeuwenhoek was the first to officially describe red blood cells and sperm cells ...
