Snap-in Imaging Cannula with Fluid Injection
Snap-in Imaging Cannula with Fluid Injection
The Snap-in Imaging Cannula with Fluid Injection has two parallel implants, a GRIN lens for deep-brain imaging, and a fluid channel for liquid injection near the imaging site. The fluid injector is removable to allow for multiple injections.

The Snap-in Imaging Cannula with Fluid Injection has two parallel implants, a GRIN lens for deep-brain imaging, and a fluid channel for liquid injection near the imaging site. The fluid injector is removable to allow for multiple injections.
The Snap-in Imaging Cannula with Fluid Injection is compatible with the following microscopes:
- Snap-in 1-color Fluorescence Microscope Bodies Model L (SFMB, OSFM)
- 2-color Fluorescence Microscope Bodies Model L (2CFM)
Notes:
The Fluid Injector for the Multiple Fluid Injections Cannulas must be ordered separately.
A 2-meter length of polyethylene tubing is sold separately to connect a fluid delivery system to the cannula (PT_OFC_2).
Each Snap-in Imaging Cannula with Fluid Injection is provided with one of each of the five models of Protrusion Adjustment Rings Model L. If more rings are needed, a set can be purchased separately (PARS_L).
