title: [Confocal scanning microscopy for biomedicine].
abstract: Confocal scanning microscopy is a new technique which can obtain the 3-D images of samples by using scanning and computer processing. It has been widely used in biomedical fields owing to its advantages such as high resolution and 3-D imaging. In this paper, we analyze the principle and research development of confocal scanning microscopies, and illustrate its advantages by comparing it with other microscopies.
