Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy
This monograph comprehensively deals with the quality parameters of resolution,
depth discrimination, noise and digitization, as well as their mutual interaction.
The set of equations presented allows in-depth theoretical investigations into the
feasibility of carrying out intended experiments with a confocal LSM .
