    Abstract: A light source for illumination in scanning microscopy comprises an electromagnetic energy source (3) emitting light (17) of one wavelength, and a beam splitter (5) for spatially dividing the light into two partial light beams (19, 21). An intermediate element (9), for wavelength modification is provided in at least one light beam (21). The partial light beams (19,21) may be directed onto overlapping regions of a specimen. The intermediate element (9) may be an optical parametric oscillator or an element for frequency multiplication. A beam shaping element may be placed after the intermediate element.

    Abstract: A method for examining a specimen (11) by means of a confocal scanning microscope having at least one light source (1), preferably a laser, to generate an illuminating light beam (4) for the specimen (11), and a beam deflection device (9) to guide the illuminating light beam (4) over the specimen (11) comprises, in the interest of reliable definition of details or regions of interest of the specimen (11), the following method steps: Firstly a preview image is acquired. Then at least one region of interest in the preview image is marked. This is followed by allocation of individual illuminating light beam wavelengths and/or illuminating light beam power levels to the region or regions. Illumination of the region or regions of the specimen (11) in accordance with the allocation is then accomplished. Lastly, the reflected and/or fluorescent light proceeding from the specimen (11) is detected.
