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 ...

Resembling fluorescent flower petals, this image shows the blood vessels in a mouse retina, as seen using confocal microscopy. Retinal ganglion cells, shown here in blue, transfer visual information ...

Scientists use confocal microscopy to study intracellular organization, structures, and dynamics in 3D. Selecting a microscope platform for a research project can be challenging because different ...

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 ...
