The VIVO platform incorporates advanced optics, cameras, computers and proprietary electronics to achieve unparalleled speed, precision and flexibility in live tissue image acquisition. The configuration of the VIVO system is designed to allow the presentation and maintenance of healthy live tissue without compromising high sensitivity imaging at high speeds. Innovative SlideBook software works seamlessly within VIVO for powerful and intuitive image acquisition and analysis.
VIVO is ideally suited for imaging vascular beds including dermis/skin-flap, mesentery, cremaster, cerebral-microvessels (via cranial window), and for imaging of larger vessels including the femoral and carotid arteries. The combination of high sensitivity and high rate of capture is essential for accurate measurement of dynamic cardiovascular events such as thrombus formation and leukocyte rolling.
VIVO comes standard with a stable, fixed, large working area stage compatible with mounting multiple manipulators and large trays for tissue and animal presentation. Optional Ablate! laser ablation system uses an attenuatable 355nm or 532nm pulse laser (>60µJ pulses at 200Hz) to enable controlled vessel damage and initiation of thrombus formation. Ablate! can be combined with Vector for directed motion including point & shoot.
In combination with spinning disk confocal (SDC), VIVO facilitates high speed optical sectioning and subsequent 3D reconstruction allowing for platelet and leukocyte applications.
