Topics covered include:

• When to use a confocal microscope
• The confocal principle
• Design of laser scanning and fast scanning (for example, spinning disk) confocals
• How to properly use illumination, scanning, and detection settings in software
• Quantitative comparision of laser scanning and spinning disk confocal, with guidelines on when to use each
