Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging Microscopy (FLIM) is an attractive microscopy method in the life sciences, yielding information on the sample otherwise unavailable through intensity-based techniques [1]. In our homebuilt FLIM setup we combine a confocal laser scanning system from LaVison BioTec with a single photon counting system from picoQuant. The triggers for confocal scanning and for single photon acquisition are carefully synchronized. We tested (i) the accuracy of the determined lifetimes, and (ii) the time and spatial resolution of the instrument using fluorescent beads of different diameters. [1] A. Le Marois, S. Labouesse, K.
