Vivo 2-Photon™ is designed for high-speed multiphoton imaging of live animals and tissue. Built on the Vector™ scanning system, it can acquire whole fields, sets of arbitrary regions, and lines. With synchronized z focus and power modulation, Vivo 2-Photon can collect multiple volumes per second, with laser power optimized for varying depths and eliminating any excitation in unwanted regions.

Multi-Photon Imaging

  • Large under-objective workspace
  • High-speed imaging - at least four 512 x 512 FPS and 1,500 LPS
  • Bi-directional scanning available for maximum acquisition speed
  • Dual GaAsP PMT nosepiece with easily interchangeable emission filter blocks
  • Synchronized z focus and laser modulation for optimal power at varying z depths
  • Blanking in overscan and user-selected regions minimizes photodamage
  • Multiple integration and frame averaging options for increased signal-to-noise
  • Complete transmitted light and widefield epifluorescence illumination pathways
  • Large, automated stage enables multi-position (6D) acquisition
  • Optional camera allows for widefield acquisition
