ABSTRACT:
A true multi-color laser scanning confocal imaging system for use with a microscope is described in which a single laser having a multi-line output is used to simultaneously or individually excite a plurality of dyes. The images may be simultaneously viewed by a plurality of photomultiplier tubes to reconstruct an image showing distinct features of a specimen strained with different dyes. The images may also be constructed using a single detector in a time-multiplex fashion and using a computer to construct the image.
