Small animal In Vivo Imaging System
Description
Overview
MediLumine’s EMCCD based PRISM? uses photon counting for highly sensitive in vivo optical imaging of up to five mice. The imager is able to detect a single photon in a pixel opening a new biological window for bioluminescence and fluorescence imaging.
In addition, the in vivo imaging system is sensitive at high acquisition speeds allowing for real-time imaging in bioluminescent and fluorescence modes.
User’s of PRISM are finding that the system has an unparalleled combination of real-time imaging and detection of ultra-weak photonic emissions for deeper and earlier in vivo imaging. The design of PRISM is completely modular allowing scientists to purchase either base Bioluminescent imager or Bioluminescent and Epi-Fluorescent System or Bioluminescent with Epi- and Trans-Fluorescent modules for NIR fluorescent 3D imaging.
