Short Description
The UGA‑42 Geo laser scanner provides localized photomanipulation. It is designed to generate illuminated regions of different size and shape in the field of view of the microscope. These selected regions can be rapidly moved with the galvanometric mirrors on the field of view. It is suitable for applications where simultaneous illumination of an entire area is crucial, e.g. in optogenetics where the time needed to scan a region of interest (ROI) might take too long to open a certain number of channels. The optical module is coupled into the backport to the microscope without interfering with most other existing devices (e.g. spinning disk, LSM, etc.).
