PRODUCT INFORMATION

Cryostat from Micron is a refrigerated microtome used for cutting frozen tissue sections for rapid microscopic examination. This essential instrument enables pathologists to provide intraoperative consultations during surgical procedures. This cryostat is widely considered the best equipment for frozen section diagnosis in histopathology laboratories.

The instrument features a precision microtome enclosed in a temperature-controlled chamber maintained at -20°C to -35°C. The dual-compressor refrigeration system ensures rapid cooling and temperature stability. Micron's cryostat is a top rated instrument for surgical pathology and Mohs surgery applications. The UV sterilization system decontaminates the chamber between uses.

The best cryostat from Micron includes motorized or manual cutting options. The digital display shows section thickness, temperature, and section count. The specimen retraction feature prevents blade damage. For hospitals performing intraoperative consultations, this cryostat is one of the best investments for patient care. The instrument includes 10 freezing stations and a quick freeze shelf.

Micron's cryostat features a heated anti-fog glass window for clear visibility. The unit includes lockable castors for mobility. Contact us to learn more about the cryostat and how it can enhance your frozen section service. We offer demonstrations and comprehensive training.
