CellCut software functions
- Computer-controlled laser power, focus position and cutting speed
- Free-hand drawing or predefined figures: circles, squares, ellipses
- Multi-segment drawing for objects larger than the field of view
- Automatic cutting of marked areas and collecting of dissected samples, including multi-cutting option
- Group cutting functions incl. group statistics
- Automatic documentation with immediate access to report • Serial section function: allows the marking of target regions onto one or more unstained sections by using a stained top section as a template. Differences in shape, angle and position are automatically compensated by the software giving highly accurate results.
- Z-Drill function: Cutting of wet and thick tissue without the need for increased laser power. The laser is refocused through the sample and so facilitates cutting in a spiral.
