CrestOptics CICERO Spinning Disk Confocal

CrestOptics CICERO Widefield and Spinning Disk Confocal Solution (Model S800105-E30)

The CrestOptics CICERO is a compact, high-performance widefield and spinning disk confocal imaging system designed for fluorescence microscopy, live-cell imaging and 3D optical sectioning. Featuring precision optics, seamless integration with modern microscope platforms, and high-sensitivity fluorescence detection, CICERO delivers excellent image quality, sensitivity, and speed for research applications.

This versatile system provides dual-mode imaging, allowing researchers to switch between widefield fluorescence and spinning disk confocal modes. Its large field of view (FOV up to 22mm) and multi-wavelength excitation capabilities make it an ideal choice for researchers needing fast, reliable fluorescence imaging while minimizing phototoxicity and photobleaching.

With flexible compatibility for both upright and inverted microscopes, multiple camera options, and support for industry-standard imaging software, CICERO is a cost-effective way to add spinning disk confocal to the microscope you already own or to a refurbished stand from Coastal.
