Microscope Incorporates Binocular Observation Tube

By HospiMedica staff writers
Posted on 08 Sep 2006
An ergonomic microscope incorporating a binocular observation tube has been developed that is ideal for prolonged use in clinical screening.

The BX45 microscope was designed for repetitive routine microscopy and permits users to sit comfortably in an upright position for long-term, fatigue-free operation. More...
Completely flexible, the eyepoint of the new observation tube is 80 mm higher and 70 mm closer to the user than that of a conventional tube.

The preferred eyepoint position can be readily adjusted by tilting and extending the tube. With additional intermediate tubes, the eyepoint height can be raised further still. Operators can look straight into the eyepiece without tilting their head, ensuring the most comfortable working position possible with the best line of sight to the specimen. This is crucial when spending long hours observing clinical specimens.

The Olympus (Hamburg, Germany) BX45 ergonomic tube is available in two different versions offering greater flexibility with added user comfort. One generates the conventional inverted image, whereas the other produces an upright image, which moves in the same direction as the specimen. The Olympus BX45 line of microscopes are designed to enable users to fully benefit from Olympus' ergonomic approach as well as the high performance of UIS2 optics, the company's infinity-corrected optical system.

The BX45 range comprises both ready-made solutions for routine clinical work and flexible open systems, which can be expanded with growing demands. Whichever system is chosen, the UIS2 optics are ideal for a wide range of imaging procedures and are particularly well suited to clinical screening by reducing eye fatigue.
