Confocal Scanner Unit, CSU series, have been improved from the original CSU10 to the most recent CSU-X1, which are widely recognized as the de facto standard tool for live cell imaging, due to fast scanning and low photo-bleaching capability. CSU-W1 is our answer to the researchers’ request for “Wider FOV” and “Clearer Images”.
Wide
Widest FOV confocal!
Provides 4 times wider FOV than the conventional model.
Conventional model
10×7mm
CSU-W1
17×16mm
Clear
Newly designed disk unit offers much improved image quality.
Due to significantly reduced pinhole crosstalk, CSU-W1 enables clear observation much deeper into thick samples.
