Whole Slide Imaging

Whole Slide Digital Scanning: About Us

Conventional methods used to visualize and evaluate results from histopathology based analyses on tissue sections is typically conducted by visual inspection and photography of the staining results in regular microscopes. Although this can generate excellent data, it is also hampered by a range of significant drawbacks including: slow flow-through, highly work-intensive, challenging to extract and compare data between cases, risk for introduction of data bias when selecting field-of-view, and fading of fluorophores skewing the data
 
Digital slide scanning is performed with help of robotic microscopes that scan entire tissues stained with chromogenic and fluorescent detection reagents at high speed and resolution (using 20x or 40x objectives). The resulting image files can then be uploaded to dedicated viewing software
