Abstract
The invention relates to a microscope arrangement provided with: a microscope () having at least two optical outputs () for outputting a fluorescence signal and a switching arrangement () for switching the output of the fluorescence signal between the optical outputs; a beam splitter arrangement (); optical elements () for generating a separate partial beam path () associated with each output in such a way that the respective fluorescence signal of each of the outputs is superimposed at the beam splitter arrangement after passing through the respective partial beam path; and also at least two optical detectors (), wherein for each of the partial beam paths, one of the detectors is located behind the beam splitter, seen from the microscope, in reflection and another of the detectors is located behind the beam splitter arrangement, seen from the microscope, in transmission.
