Virtual microscopy offers the full range of traditional microscope functionality and more. Also known as digital pathology or whole slide imaging, virtual microscopy converts a glass slide to digital in minutes. The virtual slide can then be viewed from any computer across the lab, across the country, or around the world. Viewing a virtual slide is spectacular! The capability now exists to see beyond the field of view of microscope oculars and utilize the virtual slide for a large variety of applications including:
- Glass slide archival
- Medical student education
- Image analysis
- Drug research and Discovery
- Continuing education
- Resident training
The NanoZoomer Digital Pathology System, manufactured by Hamamatsu, quickly delivers automatic, high throughput scanning with outstanding image quality! The NanoZoomer utilizes high precision technology, which gently lifts and transfers each slide into scanning position. With the click of a button up to 210 slides are automatically scanned at 20x or 40x using a 4096 x 64 pixel CCD continuous scan technology. The end result is an outstanding virtual slide in about 4 minutes at 20x!
