Description
CICERO is a complete widefield and spinning disk solution, it can be integrated into any imaging setup transforming it into a user-friendly and reliable confocal system. Life sciences, metrology, and material sciences are among the disciplines relying increasingly on high-resolution 3D imaging.
Cleared mouse brain tissue section. 3D volume movie of a 120 microns Z stack. 60x Oil.
Cortical organoid. MIP of a large image. Dual channel and Z stack acquisition. 20x Air.
CICERO spinning disk solution delivers fast image acquisition speed (15K rpm) and sensitivity, easily enabling live cell imaging and large-scale 3D object imaging. Due to its large field of view (up to 22mm FOV), CICERO offers a minimal scanning process and can capture large samples in a single frame.
CICERO is a reliable and flexible solution compatible with both LED and Laser as illumination sources. Moreover, the wide spectral range enables a large variety of applications. For this, CICERO allows to address both entry-level and challenging applications.
