Adaptable Microscopy Systems Set New Standards in Ergonomics and Efficiency

Olympus has previewed the new BX3 range of upright clinical microscopes featuring the BX43 system microscope and the BX46 ergonomic screening microscope. As with the highly successful BX2 range, the BX3 clinical microscopes incorporate the advanced Olympus UIS2 optical components and are uniquely adaptable, ensuring the ultimate level of imaging flexibility and ergonomic operation. In combination with numerous motorisation and contrast options, intuitive labSens software and the Olympus digital-imaging camera range, the BX3 microscopes are digital documentation and future-lab-ready, enabling your microscope system to adapt in line with your changing and growing workflow requirements.

The novel, true-colour LED illumination system has a unique wavelength profile, which provides a colour-rendering index matching that of a halogen bulb with a daylight filter. Furthermore, the true-colour LED system is controlled by the Light Intensity Manager (LIM), which automatically adjusts the intensity to user-defined levels for each objective change, thus removing the need for manual adjustment and making screening more efficient.

The BX3 microscopes are available with the world’s first tilting/telescopic/lifting observation tube that provides adjustment in three dimensions: eyepiece tilt -3° to +27º, tube extension (backwards/forwards) of 55 mm and lifting of 45 mm.

The BX3 range features coded nosepiece and mirror turret modules, enabling users to automatically record and share microscope magnification and setting information for comparing, measuring and scaling images.

The BX3 range of clinical microscopes from Olympus is ideal for covering all the current clinical requirements and protocols. More importantly, it is also ready for the future, whatever that may bring.
