New Paths in Glaucoma Therapy – Operation Video Supports Knowledge Transfer in Eye Surgery

If medication and laser techniques have no prospect of success in the treatment of glaucoma, surgery is essential to stop further damage to the optic nerve. A new surgical method is showing promising results for reducing the potential complications of an operation. Professor Dr. Dr. h.c. Franz Grehn, former Director of Würzburg University Eye Hospital,... Read more

New JEOL-Nikon MiXcroscopy Correlative Imaging Solution

March 27, 2014 (Peabody, MA) — JEOL and Nikon have integrated optical microscopy and field emission scanning electron microscopy in a way that enables seamless observation of the same region of interest on a sample with fast, accurate navigation. The technique, MiXcroscopy, employs the same specimen holder for both the optical microscope (OM) and the... Read more

A New Filtering Technique for Removing Anti-Stokes Emission Background in Gated CW-STED Microscopy

Stimulated emission depletion (STED) microscopy is a prominent approach of super-resolution optical microscopy, which allows cellular imaging with so far unprecedented unlimited spatial resolution. The introduction of time-gated detection in STED microscopy significantly reduces the (instantaneous) intensity required to obtain sub-diffraction spatial resolution. Read more
