Radio pulsars scintillate because their emission travels through the ionized interstellar medium along multiple paths, which interfere with each other. It has long been realized that, independent of their nature, the regions responsible for the scintillation could be used as 'interstellar lenses' to localize pulsar emission regions. Most such lenses, however, resolve emission components only marginally, limiting results to statistical inferences and detections of small positional shifts.
