Imaging Workflow System on Display at Neuroscience 2024, Booth #1101
HORTEN, Norway - October 7, 2024 -- poLight
ASA (https://www.polight.com/home/default.aspx) (OSE: PLT) today announced that
Thorlabs (https://www.thorlabs.com/newgrouppage9.cfm?objectgroup_id=16296)'
Miniature Two-Photon Imaging System (Mini2P) features the TLens® Silver tunable
optics, delivering fast multiplane imaging with a <0.4ms response time in freely
moving specimens. Available in two MEMS scanner configurations, the lightweight,
head-mounted design allows for hundreds of neurons to be monitored in a single
field of view (FoV) with visualization of up to a thousand cells achievable
through X/Y/Z tunable calcium imaging. The Thorlabs Mini2P and complete Imaging
Workflow System is on display at the Society for Neuroscience
conference (https://www.sfn.org/meetings/neuroscience-2024) in booth #1101.
"We have made notable enhancements to the original Zong/Moser/Kavli
design (https://www.cell.com/cell/fulltext/S0092-8674(22)00197

2001970%3Fshowall%3Dtrue), delivering improved imaging results at different
depths and orientations of in vivo neural activity," said Jeff Brooker, Life
Science CTO at Thorlabs VA Imaging Research. "Leveraging the low-power, fast
poLight TLens® electrotuneable lens, researchers can capture better z-scanning
data with reduced signal-to-noise ratios in low light settings. TLens® enables
fast and stable imaging of multiple interleaved planes, as well as 3D functional
imaging, providing critical insights that will advance neurological research."
"We continue to be amazed at the progress achieved with Mini2P technology," said
Dr. Oyvind Isaksen, CEO of poLight ASA. "Thorlabs imaging system enables
researchers to 'see' a new level of brain functionality, and we are pleased to
continue our fruitful collaboration."
