As scientists seek to image deeper in tissue with high enough resolution to track cellular processes, they are increasingly turning to multiphoton techniques. In multiphoton microscopy, longer-wavelength photons, which have lower energy and penetrate further than their shorter-wavelength counterparts, cause less tissue damage while imaging at greater depths. But, historically, these systems have required sophisticated and complex instrumentation that has put them out of reach for many clinical and laboratory settings.

This situation is changing. In our January/February issue, we published a story by Mihaela Balu, who wrote about a compact imaging head that could house a femtosecond fiber laser along with associated optics and...
