ex vivo light microscopy ex vivo microscopy with digital image analysis ex vivo light microscopy with digital image analysis 2012-07-03T03:05:11Z A method performed outside the living body which incorporates use of light microscopy to produce picture files stored as data expressed in a discrete numerical form, followed by use of computer software to evaluate these resulting microscopic images. Light microscopy is the examination or observation of material through a light microscope, an optical instrument that uses visible light (electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths between approximately 390 and 700 nm) processed through a lens or a combination of lenses to produce magnified images.
