Clsm combines high resolution optical imaging with depth selectivity which allows us to do optical sectioning.
Confocal microscopy most frequently confocal laser scanning microscopy or laser confocal scanning microscopy is an optical imaging technique for increasing optical resolution and contrast of a micrograph by means of using a spatial pinhole to block out of focus light in image formation.

Embryos and construct 3 d structures from the obtained images.
Relatively thick specimens can be imaged in successive volumes by acquiring a series of sections along the optical z axis of the microscope.
Laser scanning confocal microscopy laser scanning confocal microscopes employ a pair of pinhole apertures to limit the specimen focal plane to a confined volume approximately a micron in size.
In addition to the argon ion laser 488 and 514 nm and the hene laser 543 nm another argon laser 364 nm was added to the microscope.

With confocal laser scanning microscopy clsm we can find out even more.
In laser scanning confocal microscopy the image of an extended specimen is generated by scanning the focused beam across a defined area in a raster pattern controlled by two high speed oscillating mirrors driven by galvanometer motors.
This technique is used extensively in the scientific and in.
Images led to a growing interest in confocal microscopy 20.
Fortuitously shortly after minsky s patent had expired practical laser scanning confocal microscope designs were translated into working instruments by several investigators.
The entire depth of the specimen over a wide area is illuminated by the widefield microscope while the sample is scanned with a finely focused spot of illumination that is centered in the focal plane in the confocal microscope.
