By combining two fundamentally different microscopy techniques, researchers can now measure the optical properties of a ...

Modern imaging is contributing significantly to giving us a better understanding of how our brains work. In the long term, this will also help us to treat learning disorders in a more targeted way and ...

Johns Hopkins biomedical engineers unveil Back-Illumination Tomography (BIT), a high-speed microscope that provides unprecedented, real-time views of living tissue to accelerate patient care and ...

Built with sturdy materials, yet manufactured economically, the AmScope M150C is portable and the PS25 version comes with a selection of prepared slides; a good choice for a beginner to use at home, ...

A classical way to image nanoscale structures in cells is with high-powered, expensive super-resolution microscopes. As an alternative, MIT researchers have developed a single-step technique for ...

As a mouse explores its environment, millions of neurons across the brain fire in sync. To study only a small subsection at a time would be to miss the forest for the trees, but powerful microscopes ...
