Microscope accessories and supplies are used with many different types of microscopes, including dissection or stereoscopic, compound, and confocal devices

Biological microscopes are used to study organisms and their vital processes

Imaging workstations are vision systems used for metrology or image analysis in laboratory and cleanroom settings.

Microscopes are instruments that produce magnified images of small objects

Optical and light microscopes use the visible or near-visible portion of the electromagnetic spectrum to magnify images of objects

Specialty microscopes are designed for specific applications such as metallurgy or gemology.

Electron microscopes use a focused beam of electrons instead of light to "image" the specimen and gain information as to its structure and composition
