Imaging flow cytometry

The Imaging Cytometry combines the speed, statistical power, and fluorescence sensitivity of flow cytometry with the functional insights of high resolution microscopy to give you the most insightful cell analysis possible.

A custom TDI-CCD detector images 1000X faster than standard imaging systems without loss of sensitivity. Now you can image rare cells in heterogeneous samples with the fluorescence sensitivity of the best flow cytometers.

A patented high resolution imaging system simultaneously produces multiple fluorescence, brightfield, and darkfield images of each cell. Now you can analyze cell morphology, phenotype, and function all at the same time.

A unique optical system upgrade for the ImageStream cytometer keeps the entire cell in focus without loss of fluorescence sensitivity. Now you can image FISH spots or other sub-cellular features no matter where they lie in the cell.

The powerful IDEAS software package automatically calculates hundreds of parameters from each cell's imagery. Now you can define cell populations based on their phenotype, morphology, and sub-cellular probe location.
