Contrast Mechanisms

Contrast Mechanism is a physical or optical principle within medical image formation that distinguishes structures in a specimen by generating intensity or color variations in confocal microscopy through selective detection of specific signals, such as fluorescence emission, reflectance, or scattering properties, thereby enabling spatial differentiation of tissue or cellular components.
