“The ability to image whole living animals non-invasively is a very powerful tool with many, many applications. We used the XRS2D50 to image the digestive system of Drosophila melanogaster in both the pupal and adult stage of life.  We were extremely impressed with the images the XRS2D50 provided. The images were clear and in real time. Because of the non-invasive nature of the X-ray, we could still use the animal for further studies. We do not know of any other microscope system that gives you the ability to see the inside of an animal without destroying the animal and do this in real time. We have and will continue to recommend the XRS2D50.”

“The XRS2D50 has the best resolution of any X-ray system I have used.  Most industrial X-ray systems in this price range can only achieve 40 lp/mm resolution.  I was able to achieve 160 lp/mm with the IRIS 2D X-ray microscope accessory.  The system was very easy to use, and the price is unbeatable.”
