Hi,

Not straightforward FCS but RICS, Enrico Graton has several papers with it in conventional confocals.

also this one for adapting a confocal

On my PhD I've used Confocor1..with PMTs as far as I remember. Of course detection efficienty is critical.


Also, in theory, if you could park the beam and make the image you should be able to do it, I would say. We are know asking Leica to be able to control the galvos for trying with the new hyd detectors. I must say that I'm not an specialist in the subject, I might be simplistic.

Regarding software I've used a commercial package www.sstcenter.com.

I just found this but never test it.

Looks interesting though...its free and I'm cheap,

Regarding software I'm not a specialist but I've used for my PhD thesis
