  • Method for operating a laser scanning confocal microscope system and a system thereof
    Patent number: 6956647
    Abstract: A method for operating a confocal microscope system includes deflecting a light beam on a specimen with at least one beam deflection device. The position of the light beam is stepped with at least one beam deflection device across the specimen. A sample of emitted fluorescent light from the specimen is captured in synchronization with each of the stepped positions of the light beam. An image is obtained from the captured samples of emitted fluorescent light.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 20, 2004
    Date of Patent: October 18, 2005
    Assignee: University of Rochester
    Inventors: Thomas H. Foster, David L. Conover, Chad E. Biglow, Irene Georgakoudi, Andrey Mezhiba, Soumya Mitra
