Abstract
A microscope system includes a microscope with at least one microscope sensor. Each microscope sensor has a measurement device for recording sample signals; an analog-to-digital converter for converting recorded sample signals to digital data; a data compression device which produces a compressed data stream from the digital data; and a data output interface, which outputs the compressed data stream and a raw data stream that comprises digital data that were not compressed. The microscope system additionally includes a user computer to which the compressed data stream is transmitted and also a data memory to which the raw data stream is transmitted. The user computer calculates real-time images from the compressed data stream and reads and processes the raw data stream from the data memory for subsequent data analysis. In addition, a method for operating such a microscope system is described.
