The dramatic progress in biological and medical research

demands that microscopes do more than answer today's

needs.  To be viable, they must also offer the performance

potential and system flexibility to accommodate tomorrow's

research needs.  To date, only one microscope fulfills all

these demands – the AX70 Research Microscope 

from Olympus.  Offering uncompromising performance and

outstanding system integration potential, the AX70 is a

reference standard for future microscopes.
