Sentences with phrase «illumination microscopy»
"Illumination microscopy" refers to a method of viewing tiny objects, such as cells or microorganisms, under a microscope. It involves using specific types of light to illuminate the sample, making it easier to see and study its details. Full definition
The new methods dramatically improve on the spatial resolution provided by structured illumination microscopy, one of the best imaging methods for seeing inside living cells.

Structured illumination microscopy shines a striped pattern of light onto a sample.
The system is called inverted selective plane illumination microscopy (iSPIM).
This one is called structured illumination microscopy, SIM, and it falls under the heading of «super resolution.»
The technique, called microenvironmental selective plane illumination microscopy (meSPIM), uses exceptionally long, thin beams of laser light to trigger fluorescence in a sample, causing it to glow.
Developed by Hari Shroff, Ph.D., and his team at the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB), this new microscope improves on a previously developed microscope, combining two - photon laser scanning microscopy (2PM) and instant structured illumination microscopy (ISIM) by including adaptive optics (AO) to rapidly correct distortions.

She was making use of the newest version of a breakthrough technique that Betzig unveiled in 2011, called Bessel beam plane illumination microscopy.
The «brilliantly simple» idea, as Betzig calls it, of using a sheet of light to reduce cell damage is called plane illumination microscopy.
The second microscope, described in a paper published in Nature Biotechnology online on October 13, builds on selective plane illumination microscopy (SPIM).
Shroff and his research fellow Andrew York, Ph.D., found an answer to these problems with their new instant linear structured illumination microscopy (iSIM), described in a paper published in Nature Methods on October 6th.
