Image for video microscopy

video microscopy

Video microscopy is a technique that uses specialized microscopes and cameras to capture live, real-time images of tiny objects or organisms that are too small to see with the naked eye. It allows scientists to observe and record behaviors, movements, and interactions at a cellular or microscopic level. The process involves shining light or using other forms of illumination to enhance contrast, enabling detailed visualization. The captured videos can be analyzed for research, medical diagnoses, or educational purposes, providing dynamic insights into microscopic phenomena that static images cannot convey.
