A new way of seeing

High Resolution OCT Microscope (EX1301)

The EX1301 OCT Microscope is ideal for clinical research applications, enabling the user to instantly see microscopic detail below the surface of a sample, without affecting it, damaging it, or requiring any special preparation.

It is designed for laboratory use on excised tissue or complete organs. This bench-top scanner is a perfect solution for the researcher who needs to see inside a specimen but can’t afford to alter or damage it in any way.

More with Michelson…!

Michelson Diagnostics’ unique MultiBeam-OCT™ optics provide the best image resolution available – in real time.

The EX1301 is optimised for efficient workflow. Users can manipulate their sample and see the full quality results on the screen instantly. Sequential image and sample saving is provided automatically, and all raw data is saved for future analysis and manipulation without the need for user intervention.

The EXD1301 OCT microscope is now available with a motorized stage that enables the user to capture 'slices' of data from their sample. These can be processed to produce 3D-rendered images or 'fly-through' videos, or examined slice-by-slice to help find the best match with histopathology.

Free training and technical support is provided with the equipment.

We welcome enquiries from users who require hardware or software customisation to suit special applications.

Customisation

MDL proposes a variety of enhancements for future versions of its cancer scanning instruments, and are actively looking for researchers to collaborate in developing the technology for specific clinical or research areas.

Demonstration

MDL offer a no-cost, fully supported demonstration for interested customers. Lasting 2 days, and undertaken at the customer's premises, this allows a full evaluation of the system on relevant samples and in a familiar environment.

Overseas demonstrations are possible by individual arrangement. Please contact Gordon McKenzie if this would be of interest (details at bottom of page).

For larger projects, MDL will shortly announce a rental program, allowing programs from 1 week to three months to be undertaken, with rental payments counting towards the subsequent purchase of a system.

Contact

If you would like a demonstration of the EX1301, or if you believe that your research clinical practice could benefit from a customised version of the EX1301, then please contact Dr Gordon McKenzie to discuss your particular application and requirements.
