Astigmatic traction force microscopy (aTFM)
Quantifying rapidly progressing three-dimensional forces generated by cells remains a major challenge in mechanobiology. Here, the authors show that combining traction force microscopy with astigmatic imaging permits sensitive out-of-plane force estimation on the second timescale.
