Abstract

In a method for analyzing a chemical and/or biological sample, particularly in high- and medium throughput screening systems, an observation beam (12) is focused in an observation volume (24) of the sample. For analyzing the sample, the observation beam (12) is moved in the sample. According to the inventions, to improve the quality of the measurement, the observation beam is moved continuously in the observation volume (24).
