Hamamatsu Photonics

Hamamatsu Photonics is a world-leading manufacturer of optoelectronic components and systems. The Company's corporate philosophy stresses the advancement of photonics through extensive research and yields products that are regarded as state-of-the-art. All products are designed to cover the entire optical spectrum and provide solutions for a wide variety of applications including medical and industrial fields.

At Medical Innovation 2007, we shall be presenting our range of solutions such as the NanoZoomer Virtual Microscope System, now available with a powerful new option to create digital slides from fluorescence labeled tissues on glass slides.

Also on show, the new Multi-Pixel Photon Counter (MPPC), a new type of photon counting device whose signal output is generated from the sum of multiple APD pixels operating in Geiger mode. It features high gain, good signal-to-noise ratios, high sensitivity and a compact package. The MPPC is ideal for applications such as Fluorescence measurements and Positron Emission Tomography.

We will also show our wide range of component solutions such as Photomultiplier Tube Modules with filters.
