In geometry, confocal means having the same foci: confocal conic sections. For an optical cavity consisting of two mirrors, confocal means that they share...

Confocal endoscopy, or confocal laser endomicroscopy (CLE), is a modern imaging technique that allows the examination of real-time microscopic and histological...

In geometry, a focaloid is a shell bounded by two concentric, confocal ellipses (in 2D) or ellipsoids (in 3D). When the thickness of the shell becomes...
