| Different from conventional confocal systems , CSU uses CCD
cameras to capture confocal images . Taking advantage of rapid advance in CCD
camera capability, it is more and more possible to acquire high-resolution images
at high speed. Especially, significantly reduced photo bleaching and photo toxicity
with CSU makes it possible to image delicate changes in living cells, such as
cell division or embryonic differentiation at length. |
