ABSTRACT:
In a light raster scanning microscope with illumination arrangement (2) in the form of a line which provides an illumination beam for the illumination of a sample (23) in the form of points or point groups, a scanning arrangement (3, 4) which guides the illumination beam in the form of points or point groups over the sample in a manner so as to scan, a spot detector arrangement (5) which images, via the scanning arrangement (3, 4), the illuminated point or point group spot of the sample (23) by means of at least one confocal aperture (26) on at least one detector unit (28), and a control unit which controls the scanning arrangement (3, 4) and reads out the spot detector arrangement (5), it is provided that, in addition, a wide-field illumination source (29, 34) is provided which illuminates the sample (23) and that the control unit controls the scanning arrangement (3, 4) during the operation of the wide-field illumination source (29, 34) and reads out the spot detector arrangement (5) in such a manner that an image of the sample (23) subject to wide-field illumination is obtained.
