Revolutionary Imaging Technique Reveals Living Systems with Unprecedented Detail.
Researchers have developed a new imaging technique called RESORT, which combines the benefits of super-resolution fluorescence and vibrational imaging without inheriting the detriments of either. The laser-based technique uses Raman scattering to identify what's in a sample under the microscope. The team's main aim was to improve microscopic imaging for use in the medical research field and related areas. The advancements made in the design of the laser could be used in other laser applications as well, where high power or precise control is required, such as materials science.
