Hamburg: New Imaging Technique for Improved Tissue Analysis Featured

A research team from the German Electron Synchrotron (DESY) and the University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf (UKE), in collaboration with international partners, has developed a new laser system that could significantly simplify multicolor two-photon microscopy. This approach could also find applications in medical research. 


The technology is based on a compact, ultrafast fiber laser and makes it possible to visualize multiple cell types or structures simultaneously, thereby enabling the investigation of complex interactions within tissue. 

The researchers have presented their technology in the journal Laser & Photonics Reviews.
