Resolution doubling in fluorescence microscopy with confocal spinning-disk image scanning microscopy.
We demonstrate how a conventional confocal spinning-disk (CSD) microscope can be converted into a doubly resolving image scanning microscopy (ISM) system without changing any part of its optical or mechanical elements. Making use of the intrinsic properties of a CSD microscope, we illuminate stroboscopically, generating an array of excitation foci that are moved across the sample by varying the...
متن کاملConfocal fluorescence microscopy with the tandem scanning light microscope.
Applications of the tandem scanning confocal microscope (TSM) to fluorescence microscopy and its ability to resolve fluorescent biological structures are described. The TSM, in conjunction with a cooled charge-coupled device (cooled CCD) and conventional epifluorescence light source and filter sets, provided high-resolution, confocal data, so that different fluorescent cellular components were ...
متن کاملScanning and Image Reconstruction Techniques in Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy
Taking advantage of the laser scanning methodology, confocal microscopy has been widely applied in cutting-edge biological research for its three-dimensional, high-resolution imaging capability (Pawley 1995). The principles of confocal were put forward by Marvin Minsky in 1955 (Minsky 1988), yet the experimental demonstration was not accomplished until 20 years later by Cremer brother (Cremer, ...
متن کاملLaser Scanning Confocal Microscopy
Laser scanning confocal microscopy has become an invaluable tool for a wide range of investigations in the biological and medical sciences for imaging thin optical sections in living and fixed specimens ranging in thickness up to 100 micrometers. Modern instruments are equipped with 3-5 laser systems controlled by high-speed acousto-optic tunable filters (AOTFs), which allow very precise regula...
متن کاملConfocal laser scanning microscopy.
Many technological advancements of the past decade have contributed to improvements in the photon efficiency of the confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM). The resolution of images from the new generation of CLSMs is approaching that achieved by the microscope itself because of continued development in digital imaging methods, laser technology and the availability of brighter and more photos...
