Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2011036094A1] The invention relates to a microscope comprising an illumination device (19) which produces a sheet of light to illuminate a sample region (P), said sheet having an approximately planar extension in the direction of an illumination axis (X) of an illumination beam path and in the direction of a transverse axis (Y) lying at a right angle to the illumination axis (X). The microscope further comprises a detection device (1) used to detect light that is emitted by the sample region (P) along an axis of detection (Z) of a detection beam path, the illumination axis (X) and the axis of detection (Z) as well as the transverse axis (Y) and the axis of detection (Z) being oriented relative each other at an angle unequal zero and the detection device further comprising a detection lens system (2) in the detection beam path. The detection device (1) of the microscope according to the invention furthermore comprises an optical detection element which is spatially separate from a front lens of the detection lens system (2) and which can be adjusted independently thereof, said optical detection element being used to continuously vary the size of a detection image field, and/or to continuously displace a focal plane of detection in the sample region (P).
