We talked about IMC™ and the new Hyperion XTi Imaging System with Hartland Jackson, PhD, and his answers were so brilliant, we just had to share.

Reasons to choose the Hyperion XTi Imaging System
Change the way you look at cells. Accurately visualize and quantify cells to reveal mechanisms of action that impact disease progression and therapeutic outcomes.

Technology
Powered by proven Imaging Mass Cytometry™ (IMC™), Hyperion™ XTi is a next-generation imaging system with 5x the speed and an unmatched limit of detection to accurately quantify and visualize the tissue microenvironment.
IMC is the only technology with
No autofluorescence interference to image any tissue type
40-plus markers imaged simultaneously to get results faster
Protein and RNA co-detection for deeper insights
Integrated cell segmentation for faster interpretation
Batch staining of all slides for high-volume studies
Dual imaging and flow cytometry mode to maximize investment

WORKFLOW
Get results faster
Hyperion™ Imaging Systems use a one-step staining and detection approach that enables samples to be simultaneously stained, acquired and analyzed.
1

Modularized panels
Swap markers without panel revalidation.
2

Simultaneous staining
Stain 40-plus markers for all slides at once.
3

One-step detection
Simultaneous imaging of 40-plus markers, including protein and RNA.
4

Precise signals
Image any tissue without autofluorescence.
5

Real-time analysis
Visualize 40-plus markers in 30 minutes.
Need to ship or store slides?

- All-at-once batch staining of all slides to reduce technical variation
- Acquire at any time from shipped and/or stored slides that have been stained
- Analyze previously banked tissue slides to be correlated to known clinical outcomes
A workflow ideal for high-volume samples,
clinical research trials and multi-site studies
