Chip-based multimodal super-resolution microscopy for histological investigations of cryopreserved tissue sections

Abstract Histology involves the observation of structural features in tissues using a microscope.While diffraction-limited optical microscopes are commonly used in histological investigations, their resolving capabilities are insufficient to visualize details at subcellular level.Although a novel set of super-resolution optical microscopy technique
