Disk Scanning Unit (DSU)

The DSU (Disk Scanning Unit) disk contains a pattern of slits that creates a virtual pinhole as the disk spins at 3000 rpm. It removes out of focus blur, thereby enhancing resolution. This yields clear, continuous, optically cross-sectioned images. The DSU is compatible with both inverted and upright Olympus microscopes, including the motorised IX81 and BX61 making it especially suitable for automated Z-sectioning followed by post image processing like 3D reconstruction.

• Resolution enhancement by removal of out-of-focus blur
• Sharp, high contrast semi-confocal images
• Cost efficient optical sectioning
• Reduced post image processing effort
