A Stanford research team has demonstrated a technique called Interferometric Image Scanning Microscopy. It combines imaging approaches to reveal moving structures inside living cells at approximately 120-nanometer resolution, without adding the usual fluorescent labels. That could help researchers follow interactions between cells, microbes and medicines more naturally, although the technology remains a research tool.
A new microscope reveals living cells in extraordinary detail.
Stanford scientists developed an imaging approach that watches structures in living cells without fluorescent labels.
