  • Method to be used in fluorescence microscopy
    Patent number: 7688442
    Abstract: A method using fluorescence microscopy for image evaluation using a laser scanning microscope in which an at least partially spectrally resolved detection of the fluorescence spectrum occurs. Reference spectra are used for spectral demixing. Temporally and/or spectrally variable dyes and/or dye combinations are employed for recording of the reference spectra. Finally, the recorded reference spectra are inspected for image evaluation.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 9, 2004
    Date of Patent: March 30, 2010
    Assignee: Carl Zeiss Microimaging GmbH
    Inventors: Ralf Wolleschensky, Bernhard Zimmermann, Richard Ankerhold
