2. Intended Purpose of the Microscope
The Leica DMI Series microscopes covered in
this manual are designed for biological, routine,
and research applications. This includes the ex-
amination of samples taken from the human body
in order to provide information on physiological
or pathological states or congenital abnormali-
ties; to determine the safety and compatibility
with potential recipients; or to monitor therapeu-
tic measures.
The Leica DMI Series is an additional develop-
ment of Leica's proven inverted research mi-
croscopes, designed for cellular and tissue
examination, micromanipulation and microinjec-
tion techniques, microdissection, and confocal
microscopy. The Leica DMI Series is suitable
for universal deployment. All contrast methods
such as dark fi eld, bright fi eld, phase contrast,
DIC, fl uorescence, and modulation contrast are
integral to the microscope and can be adapted
or changed quickly and easily. Variable illumi-
nation and imaging beam paths, as well as HCS
optics, modular accessories, and a comprehen-
sive range of peripherals complement the Leica
Microsystems inverted research stand.
