Abstract: | A wide variety of specimens has been examined with our apparatus, a commerical version of which is being manufactured by Bio-Rad/Lasersharp. The advantages expected of a confocal system have been realised in practice, the most striking advantage being the exclusion of glare from out-of-focus structures. This has made it possible to image cytological details in unflattened cells and intact tissues that were previously inaccessible to the light microscope. |
