The new MULTISCALE X-ray nanotomograph SKYSCAN 2214 CMOS EDITION covers the widest range of object sizes and spatial resolutions in a single instrument. It opens unique possibilities for 3D imaging and exact modeling of all types of biological samples, including mineralized tissues, soft tissues, plants, insects, paleontological samples, etc.

The instrument allows scanning and 3D non-destructive reconstruction of the internal microstructure of objects as large as 300mm in diameter as well as submicron resolution for small samples.

The system contains an "open type" transmission X-ray source with <0.5 microns spot size and a diamond window. It can be equipped with up to four different X-ray detectors for maximum flexibility: flat-panel for large objects, 16Mp CMOS with large field of view, 16Mp cooled CMOS with standard field of view, and 15Mp cooled CMOS for highest spatial resolution. Automatic variable acquisition geometry and phase-contrast enhancement allows best possible quality in relatively short scanning time.

The SKYSCAN 2214 CMOS EDITION is complemented by 3D.SUITE. This comprehensive software suite covers GPU-accelerated reconstruction, 2D/ 3D morphological analysis, as well as surface and volume rendering visualization.
