The ImageStream is a multispectral_imaging_flow_cytometer manufactured by Amnis. Its has digital electronics, a single standard 488 nm solid state laser. In addition an optional 658 nm and your choice of either a 405 nm or 375 nm solid state laser can be added. Information is collected using cameras. The ImageStream system CCD camera produces six images of each cell, including darkfield, brightfield, and up to four fluorescent colors. Each image is used to calculate over 40 features, so a six-image assay results in ~250 morphometric and photometric features per cell. The ImageStream is a flow cytometer that takes pictures of the cells in flow. It has both components, an Image cytometer and a flow cytometer.
