Some of the most powerful microscopic techniques allow biochemists to analyze single molecules inside cells or in solution. A new 3-D-printed microscope can perform these single-molecule measurements ...

A microscope built in the UK is the first in the world to produce 3-D internal pictures of objects. This microscope combines two techniques, X-ray microtomography -- which produces 3-D images from a ...

Researchers have used 3D printing to make an inexpensive and portable high-resolution microscope small and robust enough to use in the field or at the bedside, notably in remote, low-tech environments ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - A Purdue startup has received federal funding to further develop a microscope that detects cellular motion in 3-D tissue. Animated Dynamics Inc. has received a two-year SBIR ...

Contact lenses represent one of the single largest categories of medical devices, with more than 31 million contact lens wearers in the United States alone, according to the Association of Contact ...

Our window into the cellular world just got a whole lot clearer. By combining two imaging technologies, scientists can now watch in unprecedented 3-D detail as cancer cells crawl, spinal nerve ...

A method for turning a small, $40 needle into a 3-D microscope capable of taking images up to 70 times smaller than the width of a human hair has been developed by scientists. the microscope technique ...

When Gang Ren whirls the controls of his cryo-electron microscope, he compares it to fine-tuning the gearshift and brakes of a racing bicycle. But this machine at the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)'s ...

Merging lattice light sheet microscopy with adaptive optics reveals the most detailed picture yet of subcellular dynamics in multicellular organisms. Our window into the cellular world just got a ...
