Morphometric & Densitometric Analysis

  • Morphometry: surface, diameter, perimeter,…
  • Densitometry: sum of intensity by channel, profiles, histogram of grey levels,…
  • Nearest neighbors & maximum likelihood

Structured light acquisition
Structured light acquisition with OptiGrid provides optical sectioning with unprecedented simplicity and light efficiency, while maintaining the optical integrity and image quality of its host microscope. OptiGrid offers confocal fluorescence image sectioning and multiple fluorescence Image sectioning and software for extended depth of focus, 3D and surface reconstruction.

Compatible with the Full Spectrum of Fluorescence Dyes


Angstrom from Quorum Technologies
This product was designed to circumvent common engineering limitations and restrictions found in the illumination pathways of microscope stands available in today’s market. The Angstrom is an optical projection device. The system is modular in nature and can be used for several microscope applications, the most common of which are associated with fluorescence illumination.
