microscopy, confocal

Preferred Label : microscopy, confocal;

MeSH definition : A light microscopic technique in which only a small spot is illuminated and observed at a time. An image is constructed through point-by-point scanning of the field in this manner. Light sources may be conventional or laser, and fluorescence or transmitted observations are possible.;
