Scanning Platform Provides Management and Analysis of Digital Pathology Images

Capacity for multiple filter cubes enables up to seven distinct fluorescence channels to be utilized across a scanning batch, providing flexibility for the varied samples in various laboratories.

The advanced tissue finding system automatically identifies areas for capture for brightfield imaging. Leica’s Dynamic Focus saves the overhead cost of slide premapping, rapidly scanning high quality whole slide images. The addition of the SL801 autoloader with capacity for 384 slides makes the SCN400 2.2 a fully automated, high-throughput system.

Dr. Donal O’Shea, head of digital pathology at Leica Microsystems, said that the advanced brightfield and fluorescence imaging capacity provides an optimal single-platform scanner for the varied samples used by biomarker discovery and translational scientists.
