Scientists at UCLA have created a lens-free microscope that relies on a silicon chip found in smartphones and digital cameras. You can’t use it to snap a selfie, but it could help scientists detect ...

UCLA researchers have developed a lens-free microscope that can be used to detect the presence of cancer or other cell-level abnormalities with the same accuracy as larger and more expensive optical ...

San Francisco, CA, and Leuven, Belgium. At next week’s SPIE Photonics West 2016, imec will demonstrate a lens-free microscope for large field-of-view live imaging at micrometer resolution. imec’s ...

Researchers have redesigned the concept of a microscope, by removing the lens, to create a system small enough to fit in the palm of a hand, but powerful enough to create 3-D tomographic, or sectional ...

A lens-free microscope devised by researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) detects cancer and other cellular-level irregularities with the precision of larger and more pricey ...

As UCLA researchers test a low-cost, lens-free microscope, a team of scientists at nearby California Institute of Technology have developed a similar device from a $1.50 digital camera sensor that can ...

High-powered microscopes are useful for spotting cancer and other diseases in cells, but they're expensive and complicated. Your local physicians probably won't have a microscope on hand, and you'll ...

A lens-free microscope that can be used to detect the presence of cancer or other cell-level abnormalities with the same accuracy as larger and more expensive optical microscopes, has been developed ...
