Project description
 

The Fluoview FV3000 (Olympus, Belgium) is a self-contained confocal laser scanning fluorescence microscope, that allows for capturing confocal images that can be modified and studied on later on. For the different research topics that we are currently studying, confocal imaging is a frequently used tool to analyze our data both for clinical (diagnosis) and research purposes.
