Researchers invented a new type of microscope called reflective matrix microscope, which uses adaptive optics techniques. Non-invasive microscopic techniques such as optical coherence microscopy and ...

A new kind of microscope is giving scientists a way to watch life inside cells with a clarity that feels almost unfair.

The leading scientific social networking website and producer of educational virtual events and webinars.

Reflection contrast microscopy can image small sections of cells by suppressing stray reflections. This is necessary when imaging biological samples, because biological objects tend to have reflected ...

Brightfield microscopy has been widely used for hundreds of years, while reflection contrast microscopy is relatively new technology. As one of the earliest and simplest microscopy techniques, ...

Visualizing tissues and neurons inside an animal's skull has long been a challenge for biophotonics techniques, thanks to the skull's thickness and the complex structures inside. A team at the ...

Microscopes are an important tool in biomedical research as it allows for detailed observation and imaging of tissues. Since biological materials are opaque by their nature, severe light scattering ...

Non-invasive microscopic techniques such as optical coherence microscopy and two-photon microscopy are commonly used for in vivo imaging of living tissues. When light passes through turbid materials ...

TIRFM is a sophisticated fluorescent microscope that allows a user to visualize a very small region of a specimen. TIRFM utilizes optics to produce light at the interface of the slide. This technique ...
