New developments in quantitative imaging cytometry

Abstract

CompuCyte Corporation (Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA) presents its iGeneration family of imaging cytometers, based on the company's proprietary laser scanning cytometry (LSC) technology. The iCyte®, iCys™ and iColor™ Imaging Cytometers allow precise quantification of fluorescent signal and laser light loss, as well as imaging of cellular and tissue specimens on a solid substrate.
