Abstract
A laser microscope includes a pulse laser which generates irradiation light having a pulse string, a laser scanner which irradiates a specimen by scanning the irradiation light on the specimen, a detector which detects emitted light generated from the specimen, a shutter which is inserted in an optical path of the irradiation light, and intercepts and transmits the irradiation light for a time period shorter than a scanning time during which a small region on the specimen is scanned, wherein the detector obtains a light amount for each scanning time, and a controller which controls the shutter to intercept a predetermined number of pulses of the pulse string of the irradiation light for each scanning time.
