Abstract: Confocal microscopy is an essential component of wafer defect detection systems. Wafers are raw materials used in the manufacture of semiconductor chips. The semiconductor chip manufacturing ...

Background/aim To investigate the in vivo presence of a natural plane of separation at the pre-Descemet membrane (DM) level in post-penetrating keratoplasty (PK) eyes using confocal microscopy.

Corneal confocal microscopy (CCM) is a non-invasive imaging technique that enables quantification of the corneal sub-basal nerve plexus and has emerged as a potential surrogate biomarker for ...

This report describes a rare case of microsporidial stromal keratitis (MSK) complicated by corneal perforation in a 69-year-old male farmer with a 5-month history of ocular redness, pain, photophobia, ...

The use of reflectance confocal microscopy resulted in 58.6% and 88.2% of unnecessary biopsies avoided in adults and children, respectively. Reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) significantly reduces ...

Confocal fluorescence microscopy (CFM) is a powerful optical biopsy technique which captures cellular resolution images of the tissue surface without the need for tissue fixation or sectioning. The ...

Biologists are very interested in how proteins, lipids and other compounds are organized and interact in systems. Very few organizational details can be gained by using standard transmission-based ...

Both images show individual red blood cells. The one on the right, produced by STED, more clearly shows the Piezo1 proteins (in green), which are a mechanical calcium channel and play a crucial role ...

A new Nikon AXR Laser Scanning Confocal Microscope purchased by the CWRU Center for Excellence on the Impact of Substance Use on HIV, led by Alan Levine, PhD, is available for use by trained faculty.

Examining age-specific trends in the incidence of human papillomavirus-associated oropharyngeal cancer in the United States. This is an ASCO Meeting Abstract from the 2025 ASCO Annual Meeting I. This ...
