See live cells with 7 times greater sensitivity using new microscopy technique
E-Mail IMAGE: Researchers at the University of Tokyo have found a way to enhance the sensitivity of existing quantitative phase imaging so that all structures inside living cells can be seen simultaneously,... view more Credit: s-graphics.co.jp, CC BY-NC-ND Experts in optical physics have developed a new way to see inside living cells in greater detail using existing microscopy technology and without needing to add stains or fluorescent dyes. Since individual cells are almost translucent, microscope cameras must detect extremely subtle differences in the light passing through part...
