Researchers at the EMBL in Germany have dramatically reduced the time required to create images using Brillouin microscopy, making it possible to study the viscoelastic properties of biological samples far more quickly and with less damage than ever before. Their new technique can image samples with a field of view of roughly 10 000 pixels at a speed of 0.1 Hz – a 1000-fold improvement in speed and throughput compared to standard confocal techniques.
