Multiphoton Microscope Leasing for Labs

Deep-tissue imaging—without tying up your budget. Lease the multiphoton microscope that fits your workflow.

What Is a Multiphoton Microscope?

Multiphoton microscopes use infrared lasers to excite fluorophores deep within living tissues, enabling long-term, high-resolution imaging with reduced photodamage. They’re ideal for intravital imaging, neuroscience, immunology, and developmental biology.

Why Lease a Multiphoton Microscope?

Multiphoton microscopy allows researchers to image deeper and longer in 3D tissues—but these systems require tunable lasers, non-descanned detectors, precise motion control, and environmental regulation, making them a major capital investment.

Excedr helps you lease cutting-edge multiphoton systems without large upfront costs—so you can focus on exploration, not budget limitations.

Where Leasing a Multiphoton Microscope Adds Value

Multiphoton microscopes are ideal for deep-tissue imaging, long-term live studies, and high-resolution 3D visualization—especially in neuroscience, immunology, and intravital research. But these complex systems can be prohibitively expensive upfront.

Leasing can be a smart choice when:

  • You’re imaging live tissues in vivo—Access intravital systems without capital delays.
  • You need deep 3D visualization with minimal damage—Penetrate further with less photobleaching.
  • You’re scaling neuroscience or immunology workflows—Expand capabilities without waiting on approvals.

Whether tracking synapses or immune responses in real time, leasing a multiphoton microscope gives your lab advanced imaging power—without financial friction.

Helping Scientists Scale & Succeed

"We used Excedr when it was time for us to make a large capital equipment purchase and the whole leasing process was smooth, quick, and seamless.

As a busy start-up CEO, I am always aware of how important it is to keep our science progressing while on a tight budget.

Working with Excedr made it possible for us to accelerate our scientific discovery pipeline without a large outlay of capital."

"Building a biotech is a lot of work. Excedr has been a dynamite partner in making that scaling happen.

They were a great partner when scaling Distributed Bio from an 8 member lab team to 35 members by the time of acquisition. When I started Centivax, Jon was one of the first people I called.

I recommend them for any biotech startup."

"Securing top-tier lab equipment while managing cash flow is a constant challenge. Excedr has been an invaluable partner in helping KiraGen Bio access the high-quality instrumentation we need without the heavy upfront costs.

Their flexible leasing options and outstanding support allow us to focus on advancing our research rather than worrying about equipment procurement and maintenance. For any biotech startup looking to scale efficiently, I can’t recommend Excedr enough."

Aaron Edwards

Co-Founder & CEO, KiraGen Bio

"Excedr helped us to finance a BLI system about a year ago. Sylvia did an excellent job at helping us to understand our options, since our company was new to equipment financing.

The leasing process was fast and easy when compared with self-funding our purchase, plus the speed and ease with which Excedr onboarded us freed up our team’s time to focus on research and grant management.

The lease of our Zeiss EVO10 electron microscope has significantly impacted our outside analysis costs, realizing a significant savings in the 1st year.

Having the instrument on-site has greatly improved our response times to field issues and fabrication challenges, while improving our Engineering and Production Teams' overall understanding of our product lines."
