Online Event – Aired on March 7!
Presentation
What’s the difference between holotomography, phase contrast, and quantitative phase imaging? These three imaging techniques are all based on the same label-free principle but can provide differing levels of resolution. This video compares these technologies and their uses in live-cell imaging, from cell counting, to high-content phenotypic analysis.

This video is part of the miniseries Discover label-free imaging technology with Nanolive.
What is holotomography, how does it work and what benefits does this live-cell imaging approach bring to fundamental research and drug development? This miniseries dives into the technology behind Nanolive’s high-content live cell images and explains how holotomography is essential for providing deep phenotypic insights into cellular responses.
