Carl Zeiss multidiscussion system for Axio Scope/Imager microscopes

The multidiscussion system for Axio Scope and Axio Imager light microscopes enables up to 21 persons to view the same object microscopically at the same time. The image generated under the microscope is seen by all observers with an identical image orientation in a 23 mm field of view.

The 23 mm field of view provides all users with a good overview of a large specimen section. Regardless of the configuration of the system, every observer sees the same image with the same orientation. All structures to which the main observer refers on the microscope lie in exactly the same way in the co-observer’s field of view.

Benefits include fast and flexible increasing of the number of co-observer workstations as well as easy adaptation to existing conditions at the site of use. As every configuration can be implemented with standard stages, no expensive special stages are required. The co-observer workstations can be configured either in a straight line or at as many right angles as required. As each tube is supported by its own column in its centre of gravity, the system is very stable.
