Bio-LIBS, the first LIBS microscope in a hospital, is installed

A unique elemental microscope for biomedical samples is now running at Grenoble Alpes University Hospital.

In June 2024, the Bio-LIBS system was installed at the CHU Grenoble Alpes. It is the first laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy microscope dedicated to biomedical samples to reach a clinical environment.

It was financed by regional, national and university funders, and it supports a first clinical study using LIBS imaging on lung tissue. Read more about the Bio-LIBS platform .
