Mass cytometry-based imager that will allow the detection of >30 proteins on tissue slides. The appreciation of the importance of tissue localization in the context of cancer and anti-cancer therapies has significantly increased in the last years. The Hyperion will support spatial investigation of, for instance, tumor –immune interactions and therapy response.

State of the art flow-cytometric analyser with the ability to simultaneously detect at least 20 parameters. Such a flowcytometer will be important for quantification and phenotyping of rare immune cells in blood and tissues. The detection of multiple parameters is essential for identification of rare cells within a pool of virtually identical cells.
