ZEISS Lightfield 4D for instant volumetric high-speed imaging
Accelerating microscopic imaging: One snap, one volume
Improving biological insight with speed and gentleness
A complete Z-stack is captured in one illumination event. This reduces light exposure and phototoxic effects. It allows for long-term imaging of entire living organisms at high temporal density, following biological processes over long periods of time. The unmatched speed of ZEISS Lightfield 4D facilitates the capture of multi-color volumes of large samples, enhancing productivity of experiments across various applications.
"Combining volume and time to enhance our understanding of complex biological processes, ZEISS Lightfield 4D represents a leap forward in 4D imaging," says Dr. Bernhard Zimmermann, Head of Life Sciences Microscopy at ZEISS. "We believe that Lightfield 4D will redefine the imaging landscape. This innovative system empowers researchers to capture biological processes in real-time, providing unprecedented insights into the dynamic nature of life."
New LSM platforms
The combination of the remarkable imaging flexibility of laser scanning microscopes (LSMs) and the gentle and instant volume imaging capabilities of ZEISS Lightfield 4D enables previously impossible experiments and pushes scientific research to new frontiers.
In conjunction with the launch of Lightfield 4D, ZEISS introduces enhanced versions of its LSM platforms: ZEISS LSM 910 and LSM 990. These upgraded systems feature new high-bandwidth electronics that support beampath technology for exceptional light preservation, visualization of high dynamic ranges, and a broad wavelength bandwidth. Additionally, image quality improvements with ZEISS Airyscan jDCV are now available for all Airyscan Multiplex modes. With the help of the Microscopy Copilot, a personal AI assistant, researchers can interactively explore new possibilities for their imaging experiments.
