Carestream Image Station 4000MM Pro System Overview

Superior Image Quality

• Up to 5-10x more sensitive than common autoradiography film systems used for chemiluminescence imaging
• 4-million pixel resolution and 10x optical zoom allow up to 10 micron/pixel resolution
• True 16-bit imaging produce more than 65,000 levels of grayscale resolution in a single capture for accurate intensity measurement
• Full illumination and lens correction algorithms minimize optical artifacts on images and data
• Patented wide angle emission filters eliminate image artifacts to enhance detection sensitivity and image quality
• Closed Optical Path Image (COPI) chamber design isolates the optical path from laboratory contaminants, eliminating contamination artifacts
