Fluorescence microscopy techniques are powerful tools for probing very small signals and revealing three-dimensional (3D) structural and functional properties of biological samples with high ...

Quantitative phase imaging is a powerful, non-invasive and quantitative microscopy technique that allows multi-scale imaging of cellular systems, explain Mustafa Mir and Gabriel Popescu Imaging by ...

For decades, a laboratory procedure known as transmission electron microscopy (TEM) has been used to test for asbestos in samples taken at construction sites. Researchers at the University of Warsaw's ...

Researchers all over Germany have developed a new system for X-ray imaging, which is suited for both living specimens and sensitive materials. The system records images of micrometer resolution at a ...

X-ray imaging visualizes hidden structures and processes in living cells and organisms. The radiation that consists of highly energy-rich electromagnetic waves, however, has an ionizing effect and may ...
