The integration of near IR picosecond pulse excitation, collinear beam geometry, epi-detection, and laser-scanning has produced a coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) microscope with a detection sensitivity of 105 vibrational oscillators, sub-micron 3D resolution, and video-rate acquisition speed. The incorporation of spectral detection and other imaging modalities has added versatility to the CARS microscope. These advances allowed sensitive interrogation of biological samples, particularly lipids that have a high density of CH2 groups. With initial applications to membrane domains, lipid bodies, demyelinating diseases, obesity, and cardiovascular diseases, CARS microscopy is poised to become a powerful bio-imaging tool with the availability of a multifunctional, affordable, easy-to-operate CARS microscope, and the development of CARS endoscopy for in vivo diagnosis.
