Physicists have captured images of an embryo using cameras designed for making quantum measurements.
The technique utilizes a digital camera that can count individual photons to take images and determine the success of treatments such as IVF.
This quantum camera allows scientists to examine natural states of biological processes with very low doses of light, minimizing damage from illumination.
The research, conducted at the University of Adelaide, opens up possibilities for quantum imaging to gain more information about living samples.
