High-speed digital scanner simultaneously views brightfield and fluorescence images making it specifically ideal for research tasks A new model in the NanoZoomer series widely used in pathology and research fields throughout the world is now on the scene. This new model is called the NanoZoomer S60 and has a special design even more optimized for research fields. Its greatest feature is that it incorporates our scientific CMOS camera which can now be called an industry standard for fluorescence imaging. This means the user can now capture high-speed fluorescence images as well as...

NanoZoomer Operator Biopsy/Operation (Collection and excision of lesions) there simply are not enough pathologists available across the country, so that regional hospitals and small hospitals with few beds available have to take measures such as asking outside pathologists to standby for part-time duties on the day of surgery or rapidly sending the cell or tissue sample to a facility where pathologists are working. The surgery can then continue after the pathologist contacts the hospital with a diagnosis. NDP slide distribution server Frozen samples prepared from tissue Lung specialist...

Hashimoto: Ten years ago, when digital processing was not really available in the field of pathology, most attention was focused on speedily capturing a sharp image. Currently, however, the speedy cap ture of a sharp image is taken for granted and the priority is...

Our newest model the S60 is specifically designed for research Let’s shift our topic to the newest model, the S60. What is its point of ultimate appeal? Susuki: The S60’s true strongpoint is that it takes sharp and clear fluorescence images. The initial NanoZoomer model was able to cap ture fluorescence images, but capturing fluorescence images on a level the customer really wanted required a long exposure time. However, the need for capturing fluorescence images such as for cancer research created a greater demand. To meet this demand, we have released a new NanoZoomer that incorporates...

Are there products from other companies that can rival the S60? Toyoda: There is a system that combines a fluorescence imaging unit with a brightfield imaging unit, and delivers the same performance as the S60 by using those two units. But the S60 is the only “All-In-One” device capable of viewing fluorescence images, offering double-size slide handling capability, and providing superb high-speed performance. Tsuchiya: For example, in the Brain Science Institute at RIKEN con ducting cutting-edge research, several units of the NanoZoomer are being used. I think the staff there are well...

Company News Hamamatsu shines at Photonics West 2017 SPIE Photonics West was held in San Francisco, California, from January 31 through February 2. With over 23,000 attendees and 1,300 exhibitors, it is the biggest trade show in the photonics industry and has become the ideal platform to announce the release of new products. This year, the technologies that generated the most interest were NIR-sensitive silicon photomultipliers (SiPM), MEMS mirrors, LCOS spatial light modulators, IR light sources and detectors, compact xenon flash lamps, and the W-VIEW GEMINI-2C image splitting optics for...

Application Report Pushing spray measurements to the limits An MPPC application example – Pushing spray measurement to the limits Dr. Sebastian Albrecht, Production Manager and Head of Electronic Development Division 02.11.2016 Figure 1: The SpraySpy® measurement system. Abstract: To control the performance of a spray, reliable knowledge of the spray parameters is essential. The company AOM-Systems from Darmstadt (Germany) uses the Time-Shift-Technique to measure these parameters. Built into this system is the new generation of the Hamamatsu multipixel photon counter (MPPC). In the...
