User manual LEICA M525 F40 BROCHURE

[. . . ] Sophisticated interface solutions make the Leica M525 F40 compatible with neuronavigation/IGS systems. A new feature of the new Leica M525 microscope is the coupling of the illumination brightness control to the working distance for even more reliable work at short distances. Leica Design by Christophe Apothéloz True greatness in tight spaces. Always in the right place The modern operating room is frequently filled with numerous pieces of surgical equipment and a large team of surgeons and nurses. Under these circumstances, even large operating rooms can get a bit tight. Leica engineers developed the Leica F40 stand in response to these often cramped conditions. [. . . ] ISUS also features a selfdiagnostic system. The compact design of the Leica M525 F40, guarantees the smallest possible working distance between the eyepieces and object field. Its optimized ergonomics guarantee a relaxed posture for the surgeon. A clear, sterile view: sterilizable objective protection glass. The Leica M525 objective cap consists of high-quality, thin-film coated optical glass in an interchangeable mount for the best possible vision and long-lasting sterility. Objective protection glass Control electronics Fast and optimal: the illumination. The 300W xenon light source allows even the finest structures in low-lying operating locations to be viewed clearly with perfect depth perception. Should the xenon light source ever fail during surgery, the 150W halogen light source will be available within one second with a quick turn. Lightning unit with lamp quick-changer (XENON/HALOGEN) The power package: 300W xenon light source Compatibility Prepared for all data The Leica DI C500 allows the surgeon to view data from any external source such as MRI, CT, IGS, and endoscopes. With an IGS computer, the CT or MRI can be fully correlated to the image in the eyepieces. Correlated image information can be superimposed on the microscope image, while non-correlated information is displayed over a black background using quad-shutter technology. All data can be projected with the highest resolution, brightness and contrast available in the marketplace today. RGB Monitor system with highest available resolution 1024×768 pixel. In combination with IGS systems or deployed independently, the Leica DI C500 dual imaging module processes more file formats than ever ­ high-resolution RGB video signals, correlated data from IGS systems, standard CT or MRI data and more. Endoscopy The Leica M525 F40 can be used very easily for neuro endoscopy application in combination with the Leica DI C500. With the Leica DI C500, the surgeon will view in whichever microscope eyepiece he chooses, what he could observe on a high resolution monitor. The Leica ULT 500 is the ultra-observation tool for the surgeon, the assistant and video documentation. A simple lever allows the light to be directed to either a 180° assistant or a 90° assistant. Individuality thanks to modularity With its modular design, the Leica M525 F40 lets users adapt the system to their personal requirements. Leica offers surgeons, assistants and trainees optimal observation equipment for surgery at the head, spine or other areas of the body. Special value was placed on meeting the justifiably high ergonomic requirements of the users during development. An extremely wide range of quality accessories is also available for the documentation. A particularly noteworthy feature is the Leica Video Zoom Adapter with its unique 3× optical zoom and separate fine focus, which can be controlled in a sterile environment. Leica Video Zoom Adapter Fine focus 3× optical zoom The Leica M525 also features an interface for the adaptation of laser systems.
