Abstract

Abstract:

Advanced microscopic imaging technology is a powerful tool in cell biology research. It can be used to achieve three-dimensional imaging in vivo with high resolution. This paper introduces the principles and key points of these techniques and the current situation of their applicaions in cell biology, including optical microscopy, electron microscopy, fluorescent probes and their related techniques.Moreover, the prospect of advanced microscopic imaging technology is also discussed.

Key words: Microscopic imaging technology, Resolution, Live observation, Three-dimensional imaging, Human
