Chemical imaging for cancerous tissue
15 January, 2014Scientists have outlined a new method for analysing biological samples, such as searching for cancer, based on their chemical make-up. The process would transform medical examinations, with tests currently involving interpretation by a histology specialist and a waiting period of weeks to obtain a full result.
Syngene GeneSys gel and blot imaging software version 1.4.0.0
06 December, 2013GeneSys imaging software version 1.4.0.0 is now available from Syngene. The product contains extra features and a redesigned interface to make the capturing of images both easier and quicker.
Jenoptik ProgRes CMOS and CCD digital microscope cameras
21 November, 2013The ProgRes CMOS (3 or 5 MP) and CCD (3, 5 or 7 MP) cameras from Jenoptik are suitable for all contrast methods in light microscopy and can be easily integrated via C-Mount and USB 2.0/ FireWire interfaces.
World-first imaging system for cochlear implants
11 November, 2013A world-first brain imaging system has been launched at the Australian Hearing Hub, located at Macquarie University. The system will allow researchers in the ARC Centre of Excellence in Cognition and its Disorders (CCD) and HEARing Cooperative Research Centre (CRC) to see how the information processed by cochlear implants is interpreted by the brain.
New imaging system uses unconventional way of focusing light
09 October, 2013For hundreds of years, optical devices like microscopes and telescopes have relied on solid lenses that slide up and down to magnify and to focus. In pursuit of ever-smaller imaging systems, researchers are now working to create entirely unconventional ways of focusing light.
GE Healthcare Applied Precision DV Elite Imaging System with TruLight Illumination
06 August, 2013The DV Elite microscopy imaging system is designed for maximum flexibility and can handle most applications, including time-lapse live cell imaging, total internal reflection fluorescence (TIRF), fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET), photokinetics and differential interference contrast (DIC).
Molecular Devices MetaMorph Super-Resolution Imaging System
24 July, 2013The MetaMorph Super-Resolution Imaging System provides real-time super-resolution imaging on the nanometre scale, capturing organisation of sub-cellular structures not readily discernible with conventional, confocal or TIRF microscopy.
Fingerprint forensics getting closer to the TV representation
08 July, 2013Contrary to all the TV shows, in real life only 10% of fingerprints taken from crime scenes yield identifications usable in court. But now a new way of detecting and visualising fingerprints from crime scenes using colour-changing fluorescent films could lead to higher confidence identifications from latent (hidden) fingerprints on knives, guns, bullet casings and other metal surfaces.
Improvements in 3D imaging
27 May, 2013Research conducted at Curtin University in Perth has enabled significant increases in image quality in a widely used 3D printing technique that is more than 100 years old.
Ultrafast high-resolution imaging in real time
22 April, 2013Ultrafast high-resolution imaging in real time could be a reality with a new research discovery led by the University of Melbourne.
Dage-MTI HD-210U high-definition camera for microscopy
21 March, 2013Dage-MTI has introduced the HD-210U, a high-definition video camera for microscopy, clinical imaging demonstrations, teleconferencing and scientific applications.
Andor Revolution WD spinning disk confocal system for live cell imaging
01 March, 2013The Andor Revolution WD spinning disk confocal system offers spinning disk confocal to research fields using different sample types.
MR Solutions 3 T benchtop MRI scanner
25 February, 2013MR Solutions has released its 3 T, helium-free and cryogen-free MRI benchtop scanner. The scanner provides good soft tissue contrast and molecular imaging capability and, because of its design, it only takes up the space of a desk.
New imaging device is flexible, flat and transparent
22 February, 2013An Austrian research team has developed an entirely new way of capturing images based on a flat, flexible, transparent and potentially disposable polymer sheet.
Syngene PXi 6 gel documentation system
11 February, 2013The PXi range of gel documentation systems from Syngene offers a compact, space-saving system capable of a wide range of applications without compromising on quality.
