This book covers various aspects of modern microscopy, with emphasis on multidimensional (three-dimensional and higher) and multimodality microscopy. The topics discussed include multiphoton fluorescent microscopy, confocal microscopy, x-ray microscopy and microtomography, electron microscopy, probe microscopy and multidimensional image processing for microscopy. In addition, there are chapters demonstrating typical microscopical applications, both biological and material.
