In-surgery cancer diagnostics relies on reproducible section quality within minutes. This can be a challenge when dealing with complex or difficult cases. Examples are a head- and neck surgery with multiple tissue samples from one patient, or varying tissue types from brain biopsies to lymph nodes. The Leica CM1950 provides the capacity and can be ordered with the functions, to support even these difficult types of frozen sectioning. Leica CM1950 - The cryostat for laboratories with numerous specimens and varying specimen types.

Depending on your specific requirements, the Leica CM1950 cryostat can be ordered with a variety of options. Start with the standard instrument and choose from a range of options to meet your laboratory's individual needs.

For an efficient workflow, all instruments come with a spacious cryocabinet to facilitate handling of multiple specimens. The cryostat provides sufficient space to organize your tools, freezing media and glass slides.
