Leica M720 OH5 Advanced Surgical Microscope

Leica M720 OH5 Advanced Surgical Microscope

• Optics: Features the APO OptiChrome lens and a 6:1 zoom ratio, which allows for a working distance of 200mm to 500mm that can be adjusted via a motorized function with a manual override option.
• Illumination: It uses a high-performance 400 Watt xenon arc-lamp as the main light source, providing continuously adjustable brightness and an emergency lamp with similar specifications for uninterrupted operation.
• Binoculars: The microscope is equipped with 115° variable angle binocular tubes that provide ergonomic height adjustments and a range of dioptric settings to accommodate different users.
• Focusing: Incorporates a dual laser focusing device known as SpeedSpot for precise and quick positioning.
• User Interface: Includes a touch screen interface for intuitive control and adjustments during procedures.
• Integrated Technologies: Offers options for image-guided surgery (IGS) integration and fluorescence systems, enhancing surgical visualization and accuracy.
  

  The Leica M720 OH5 is Leica Microsystems’ premier surgical microscope, purpose-built for neurosurgery, otolaryngology, and reconstructive microsurgery. Featuring Horizontal Optics Technology, it offers a compact optical head aligned horizontally, significantly improving surgeon ergonomics and freeing up working space—ideal for deep-seated or upright surgical positions. Its overhead OH5 stand, developed with Mitaka, delivers exceptional reach and clearance, enabling precise positioning in crowded or restricted OR settings.

  Optics and illumination aboard the M720 are top-tier: Leica APO OptiChrome™ lenses paired with dual independent 400 W xenon light sources, delivering uniform and high-contrast illumination even in deep cavity procedures. Safety features like BrightCare™ and AutoIris™ automatically adjust light intensity and beam diameter based on working distance and magnification, minimizing risk of thermal injury to patient tissue. SpeedSpot™ autofocus ensures rapid and precise parafocal alignment across surgeon, assistant, and camera ports, supporting uninterrupted workflows.

  Designed with adaptability in mind, the M720 OH5 supports integrated TrueVision® 3D surgical visualization or Med X Change HDMD systems for seamless recording and team observation. Additional modular features include ErgoLock™ butterfly binoculars with swivel capability, mouth-switch control, and fluorescence imaging modules (FL400, FL800, FL560) to support oncological and vascular surgeries. Built on Leica’s OpenArchitecture™ design philosophy, this platform supports future upgrades and accessory integration without major system overhauls.

  
  

The Leica M720 OH5 surgical microscope is designed for use in neurosurgery and other delicate surgical procedures, offering advanced features to enhance visibility and precision. Here are some of its key specifications: This unit was recently pulled from service with less than 10 hours of use after being reconditioned by Presott's Surgical.

The design and functionality aim to deliver superior maneuverability, ergonomic comfort, and advanced imaging capabilities to support complex surgical tasks.
