Cell Imaging
Cell imaging: encloses the techniques that allow the detection and analysis of cellular organelles and macromolecules. Live cell imaging was pioneered in the first decade of the 20th century, and is used by scientists to obtain a better understanding of biological function through the study of cellular dynamics.
