M525 MS3

Leica Microsystems introduces the innovative combination of a compact microscope for microsurgery with the
top class standard of electromagnetic brakes and robotics. Merging the best features of the Leica M525 MS2 and
Leica M525 OH4, with both electromagnetic and robotic movements, the Leica M525 MS3 offers the neurosurgeon,
spine surgeon or otolaryngolist, another alternative in surgical microscopes. Easy to move, precisely balanced and
coupled with the brilliant optical performance of the Leica M525 platform, the new Leica M525 MS3 will perform
superbly in the operating room.
A new feature of the new Leica M525 microscope is the coupling of the illumination brightness control to the working
distance for even more reliable work at short distances.

The new Leica M525 optics

™

featuring OptiChrom

The Leica M500 neurosurgical optical system has gained count­less satisfied users since 1997.

Leica now takes innovation a step further with the new Leica
M525, featuring the latest generation of OptiChrome™technology
– the integration of all new glass, coating and design parameters
that deliver the following decisive advantages:

Longer 32% extended working distance to 470mm

•

Deeper 30% increased depth of field at same magnification

•

Brighter 30% more light intensity

•

Sharper Higher contrast and crisper, sharper image

•

Smarter Zoom-synchronized illumination field diameter

•

Ten years of relentless research and clinical experience of
OptiChrome™optics have now culminated in the world’s most
advanced optical system: the new Leica M525 OptiChrome™.

To position the Leica M525 MS3, the surgeon uses newly designed
hand grips made of a highly durable metal casting. Ergonomically
designed with a solid feel, the hand grips control all the standard
parameters such as focus, zoom, and electromagnetic brakes.
A simple to use joystick on either hand grip activates the motor­ized tilt and inclination (XY) of the Leica M525 MS3 optics carrier.
If desired, one of the joysticks can be defined to control the Leica
Dual Imaging or any IGS navigation system.
