 Multi-color, Multi-channel Fluorescence Module for Tissue Imaging with New High-power and long-life light source
|
|
This new add-on for the NanoZoomer 2.0 series improves the quality of digital images scanned from tissue samples stained with multiple fluorescence labels such as Qdots, fluorochromes, and fluorescent proteins. Whole slide scans of fluorescent slides allow you to review, examine and analyze all parts of the tissue without worrying about photobleaching due to repeated searching of the glass slide trying to find areas of interest. In addition, the digital images of whole slides are easily shared over a network or the internet. Click on a link below to learn more: Click on a link below to learn more:

The NanoZoomer Digital Pathology (NDP) is a product suite for "Virtual Microscopy"
Virtual Microscopy means the capability of viewing whole microscope slide images in digital form on a computer or over a network. These digital images are called "virtual slides." They typically contain billions of image pixels, preserving all the crucial information of the original glass slide in glorious detail and image quality; even focus depth information can be preserved if required. Instead of peeping through a microscope's eyepiece a virtual slide is viewed very conveniently on a computer monitor screen.
- easily and instantaneously view images over existing computer networks, even over large distances via the Internet
- share exactly the same image with colleagues at the same time
- enjoy superior work ergonomics
- forget about slide degradation during long-term storage
- annotate slides without affecting their contents
- open up many possibilities for software-aided image analysis
These benefits make Virtual Microscopy the ideal method for the following applications:
- remote diagnostic viewing
- clinical remote consultation
- group presentations and discussion
- student education
- case libraries and tissue databanks
- large-volume software-aided image analysis
Exploiting Hamamatsu's latest sensor technology, the NanoZoomer scanners are capable of fast scanning while providing unsurpassed image resolution and quality. Scanning under brightfield and fluorescence conditions, fully automatic batch processing of many slides, Z-stack scanning for keeping focus information, are some of the many outstanding capabilities of these state-of-the-art scanning machines.
