Glossary Structure
The NBO-Q Microscopy Glossary organized in sections, that are organized on the basis of the 4DN-BINA-OME (NBO) Microscopy Metadata Specifications. In addition to a section that describes the microscope Instrument as a whole and a section that contain Manufacturer Specifications terms that are common to all hardware components (e.g., Manufacturer, Brand, Model, Catalog Number), there is a section for each of the individual hardware components that comprise a modern microscope Instrument.
All sections that have been developed so far or are in progress are listed below.
