Detailed Description

This equipment is a fluorescent-based Confocal Laser Endomicroscopy (CLE) system, bringing the confocal microprobe in contact with the tissue of interest to record real-time images of the tissue at cellular resolution, in vivo. The dual-colour capability (488nm and 660nm excitations) allows the capture of functional and morphological images of molecular mechanisms in real time.
