    Glossary Light Microscopy

    uses visible light and lenses to magnify small objects

    Light Microscopy, also known as Optical Microscopy, is a technique that uses visible light and a system of lenses to magnify small objects, making them visible to the human eye. It is commonly used in biology to observe cells, tissues, and microorganisms, providing detailed images that can be essential for research and diagnosis.
