Two new microscopy techniques may enable better resolution from existing hardware and greater imaging depths if a different light source is used. We take a look at each of these in turn. Self ...

Bessel beams look quite different from the usual Gaussian light beams found in optics. In particular, they possess several interesting properties including self-healing, ...

Light-sheet fluorescence microscopy has become the leading method for imaging large, tissue-cleared samples in 3D, owing it to its optical sectioning, reduced photodamage, and rapid acquisition.
