New rhodamine spiroamides for fluorescence nanoscopy are described by V. N. Belov, S. W. Hell et al. in their Full Paper on page 10762 ff. These compounds present multicolor staining, good photoactivation, a large number of emitted photons, and selective chemical binding, and can be used in (co)localization studies to provide resolutions of a few tens of nanometers.
