Large Field of View Calcium Imaging and Intrinsic Imaging

The OASIS Macro is designed to image the activity of thousands of neuronal populations across the entire cortex of a head-fixed mouse or large cortical areas of an awake animal. The lenses compatible with the OASIS Macro provide a large field of view, compared to conventional microscopes.

Cortex-Wide Targeted Optogenetics

Perform region-specific targeted optogenetics or stimulate the entire cortical area with widefield optogenetics. The addition of Mightex’s Polygon DMD Illuminator to the OASIS Macro enables targeted patterned illumination of regions or cells of interest.

Synchronize with Behavioural or Electrophysiology Equipment

Easily synchronize imaging or optogenetics with other lab equipment. Synchronize with your stimulation patterns or imaging with electrophysiology or behavioural equipment.

Simplistic Mesoscope Design for In Vivo Experiments

The OASIS Macro is designed for in vivo experiments with a minimalist design. A heavy-duty precision XYZ stage is mounted on an articulated support structure and the OASIS optical assembly is in turn mounted on the XYZ stage. The XYZ stage controls the lateral motion as well as the focus of the system. The support structure allows for 2 axes of tilt, allowing the optical assembly to rotate both left and right, and forward and backward.

Compatible with Third-Party Scientific Cameras

When imaging indicators in vivo, scientists need ways to reliably and confidently collect and analyse the signals obtained. Our platform supports the use of scientific-grade cameras that maximize the quality and temporal resolution of the image acquisition. Compatible with any C-mount camera or multiple cameras.
