    FIGURE 1. Multiphoton, or nonlinear, microscopy, uses ultrafast laser sources for capturing high-resolution three-dimensional (3D) images with reduced photobleaching and phototoxicity compared to traditional confocal microscopy techniques. However, pulse spreading can make multiphoton microscopy images like this one become blurry.
