Abstract

The present specification relates to a method for light microscopic examination of a sample (6), in particular by means of laser scanning or MINFLUX microscopy, in which a drift of the sample (6) or of an object in a sample (6) with respect to the light microscope (26) is detected and, if necessary, corrected. In particular, the present specification relates to a corresponding method for examining the sample (6) using laser scanning or MINFLUX microscopy. For this purpose, reference markers (8, 13) are located in the sample, the position of which is repeatedly determined according to the MINFLUX principle in order to determine the drift.
