Microscope Imaging Service—Stereoscope THUNDER Imager Model Organism Automated

Confocal microscopy is an optical imaging technique that uses point-by-point illumination and spatial pinhole modulation to remove scattered light from the non-focal plane of the sample, allowing for improved optical resolution and visual contrast compared to traditional imaging methods. CD BioSciences, the imaging experts, can provide you with Stereoscope THUNDER Imager Model Organism Automated-based confocal microscopy imaging services.
