Covers recent technical advances and new approaches to monitoring and
altering cell physiology, examining membrane cytoarchitecture, observing
multiple cellular activities and intact organ physiology, plus confocal
imaging of cell life function, lifetime imaging, and automated clinical
imaging cytometry. The book provides the reader with a synopsis of the most
recent technical developments in optical microscopy as applied to scientific
research. Each chapter introduces new methods by describing how these
overcome limitations inherent in previous techniques. Software, hardware,
and other equipment concerns are covered. Additionally, the book reviews
current applications in order to stimulate future developments in optical
microscopy, encouraging novel uses and new technical advances. The full
breadth of topics covered can be readily appreciated from a quick review of
the topics covered.
