Confocal microscopy is an optical imaging technique that uses point-by-point illumination and spatial pinhole modulation to remove scattered light from the non-focal plane of the sample, allowing for improved optical resolution and visual contrast compared to traditional imaging methods. CD BioSciences, the imaging experts, can provide you with GE phoenix v|tome|x s240-based confocal microscopy imaging services.
For technical details regarding our CT system, we have broken the system down to tube-specific below with details pertaining to both x-ray tubes as well as the detector. The two x-ray tubes are used interchangeably to meet sample based and research requirements. The same detector is used for both x-ray tubes. These sub-systems are all GE manufactured products and can be viewed on their web-page.
Nano-focus high resolution x-ray tube: The nano-focus, 180 kV x-ray tube produces a transmission type signal with interchangeable molybdenum, tungsten or diamond targets. This tube is employed when scanning small or low x-ray attenuating samples. It is able to produce a focal spot of 200 nm through the use of specialized modi. Resolution range from .8 µm to 120 µm. A diamond target is used for most samples requiring this tube's resolution potential, however for those of low-attenuating contrast and the need for sub-10 micrometer resolution, the molybdenum target is installed for improved scan
The 2010 GE phoenix v|tome|x s240 system is composed of two x-ray tubes, a high-resolution amorphous silicon detector and GE phoenix datos acquisition and reconstruction software. Scan data is reconstructed by the implementation of a Graphics Processing Unit (GPU). The reconstructed data is then compiled on high powered workstation. For post-processing and analysis of reconstructed-scan data, the lab currently utilizes Volume Graphics VG Studio Max 3.4 as well as Fiji, Dragonfly, and others. All of these workstations have been optimized to process large files through computationally rigorous algorithms such as high-resolution CT data requires.
