Preferred Label : microscopy, fluorescence, multiphoton;
MeSH definition : Fluorescence microscopy utilizing multiple low-energy photons to produce the excitation
event of the fluorophore. Multiphoton microscopes have a simplified optical path in
the emission side due to the lack of an emission pinhole, which is necessary with
normal confocal microscopes. Ultimately this allows spatial isolation of the excitation
event, enabling deeper imaging into optically thick tissue, while restricting photobleaching
and phototoxicity to the area being imaged.; Fluorescence microscopy utilizing multiple low-energy photons to produce the excitation
event of the fluorophore (endogenous fluorescent molecules in living tissues or FLUORESCENT
DYES). Multiphoton microscopes have a simplified optical path in the emission side
due to the lack of an emission pinhole, which is necessary with normal confocal microscopes.
Ultimately this allows spatial isolation of the excitation event, enabling deeper
imaging into optically thick tissue, while restricting photobleaching and phototoxicity
to the area being imaged.;
