TECHNOLOGY
Powered by proven Imaging Mass Cytometry™ (IMC™) technology, Hyperion XTi is a multiplexed tissue imager that uses metal-tagged antibodies, instead of fluorophores, to simultaneously and reliably acquire 40-plus protein and RNA markers, without autofluorescence interference. IMC is the trusted choice for researchers and continues to be featured in high-impact publications – making it the most reliable tool for highly multiplexed imaging.
See data quickly.
Researchers can visualize 40-plus markers in real time, without managing time-consuming acquisition cycles – expediting the time to deeper analysis.
Represents Hyperion XTi Preview Mode for a large tissue section over 25 minutes. Researchers can select and view from any markers on the panel during acquisition.
See data clearly.
Clearly define areas in any tissue type ― including lung, bone marrow, colon and brain ― without background autofluorescence and spectral overlap.

Multiplexed imaging – without compromising speed
An end-to-end workflow to get results faster
A one-step staining and detection workflow
Imaging Mass Cytometry enables 40-plus markers that can be simultaneously stained, acquired and visualized. Other fluorescence-based approaches involve iterative rounds of staining, imaging and removal of fluorescent signals. The IMC workflow is without sequential immunostaining approaches, multiple slide treatment rounds or acquisition steps.
Protein and RNA co-detection
Detect protein and RNA on the same tissue sample to correlate transcriptional signatures and the spatial context of pathogens, host cells or protein sources. Explore this multi-omic workflow that combines RNAscope™ technology with IMC to visualize key RNA and protein markers in the same samples.
This image highlights RNA and protein co-detection in lung squamous cell carcinoma using the Hyperion XTi Imaging System and a 33-marker panel combined from three ready-to-go reagent kits.
