Confocal microscope with large field and working distance
- Wellman Laboratories of Photomedicine, 40 Blossom Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02114 (United States)
A confocal microscope that uses separate, noncollinear objective lenses for illumination and collection makes it possible to work 20 mm from a sample with a field of view of 2.25 mm across the still achieve lateral and axial resolutions below 5 {mu}m. The design is expected to have application to {ital in vivo} confocal microscopy, allowing a field of view and section thickness similar to those used by pathologists in examining excised tissue. {copyright} 1999 Optical Society of America
