Hi Josh,
at least 5,000 point scanning confocal microscopes.

As of 4 years ago, when I was managing 2 Leica SP5 (one with MP) and one
Zeiss LSM710 confocal microscopes.

* 1500 (or more) Leica SP5's ... I assume replacement SP8's are in
equilibrium.
* 1500 (or more) Zeiss LSM710 and LSM780's (latter were pretty new at
the time).
* 1000 current generation Olympus + Nikon point scanning confocals.
* 1000 older generation 'LNOZ' confocals.
*   500 (maybe 1500?) miscellaneous other vendors point scanning confocals.

500 is my guess for commercial microscopes purchased primarily for
super-resolution (SIM+STED+PALm/STORM/SMLM/other STORM variants). Just a
guess on this category.

For NIH spending

Notes:
* above is not perfect, there is an electron microscope in the list.
Better search terms and filtering/editing the results.
* once an S10 grant is awarded, the item being purchased can be changed.
* sometimes the institution pays for part of the purchase ... more often
the amount is simply very close to the $600K max for "S10" (shared
instrumentation) or $2M for "HEI" (high end instrumentation).
* I will guess that going back to previous years, S10 is pretty much
proportional to sales of confocal's in the US.
