Fuji s BAS-5000 offers the highest image quality of any phosphor imaging system. It uses Fujifilms unique confocal laser and light-collecting optics. The BAS-5000 is amenable to fine-structure studies of a wide variety of tissue samples. With a dynamic range up to five orders of magnitude and a pixel size as small as 25 m, images captured with Fujifilm IPs and the BAS-5000 are superior to X-ray film autoradiograms. Fujis BAS-5000 delivers superior sensitivity, accuracy, and rapid scan times; a 20 x 25 cm Imaging Plate may be scanned at 50 m in as little as five minutes. Making the BAS-5000 not only the most powerful phosphor imaging system when it comes to resolving images, but one of the fastest as well.
