Company Summary

3scan is using the patented technology Knife Edge Scanning Microscopy to do what no other microscope can do, make 3D computer models of whole organs from research animals. 3Scan has an exclusive world wide license to this technology which automatically takes a sample as large as a cc^3 and slices thin sections a half micron thick. This gives us sub micron resolution of whole organ samples which can be used for drug discovery and research.
