Acousto-Optic Components Overcome Limitations in Confocal Microscopy
Dec 15, 2022 — Confocal and multiphoton microscopy are commonly used to provide 3D-resolved images of in vitro or in vivo tissue samples without physical sectioning. But there are also inherent trade-offs in the use of these techniques when it comes to imaging depth, resolution, and speed. Recent developments in the use of acousto-optic and other photonic components integrated into a microscope are beginning to address these limitations in capability, opening up new opportunities in life science research.
