Zusammenfassung:A system is provided having a clamping apparatus with first and second members, which are spaced apart from each other. An attachment mechanism is connected to the first member for attaching the apparatus to a confocal imaging system. This attachment mechanism has a surface with a window facing the tissue to be examined. Opposing this surface is a third member connected to the second member. A clamping mechanism includes the first and second members for clamping the tissue between the surface of the attachment mechanism and the surface of the third member, thereby stabilizing the tissue to the confocal imaging system. The window of the attachment mechanism presents the clamped tissue to the confocal imaging system.
