Dear List
I want to know use of Confocal Microscope in Medical Sciences for a presentation in a Medical Institute. The topic i am given is "Non invasive technique in Biomolecule Imaging" emphasis on Confocal microscopy. Any inputs will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance Charu Tanwar Imaging Specialist Advanced Instrumentation Research Facility Jawaharlal Nehru University New Delhi India |
Hi Charu,
I do not know if confocal is being used for non-invasive imaging....but multiphoton technologies for sure. Many intra-vital imaging modalities for blood vessels, brain cells and skin are already supplied as commercial solutions... Hope thats of some help.

A device called DermaInspect is used in Europe. It is not approved in
North America yet. It is basically a 2 photon microscope on an articulated arm that is used to check moles and other skin blemishes for cancer. It uses 2 photon autofluorescence as its signal.

Hi Charu,
Maybe a bit late for your presentation ... confocal endoscopes - see CellVizio, Mauna Kea Technologies. Not the only c.e. available. I believe there are confocal fundus instruments in ophthalmology, though I get the impression optical coherence tomography (OCT) has found more utility in eye disease.
