Archive digital slides on the cloud or local servers for seamless long-term storage and retrieval. Eliminate the need for maintaining physical slides while ensuring accessibility and data security.
Whole slide imaging captures an entire glass slide at high resolution, allowing for digital viewing and analysis of the entire specimen. In contrast, traditional microscopy involves viewing smaller sections of the specimen under a microscope, requiring manual scanning and limited field of view.
The main components of a whole slide imaging system typically include a scanner, a light source, a camera, and software for image acquisition, processing, and analysis
Whole slide imaging can scan various types of samples, including tissue sections, cytology slides, blood smears, cell cultures, and histological specimens.
Using whole slide imaging in pathology offers several benefits, including improved workflow efficiency, remote consultation and collaboration, easier archival and retrieval of cases, enhanced teaching and training capabilities, and increased diagnostic accuracy through digital image analysis.
Digital images in whole slide imaging are generated by scanning the entire glass slide using a scanner and then stored electronically in a digital format. The images are typically stored on a computer or server and can be accessed, viewed, and analyzed using specialized software.
While whole slide imaging offers numerous advantages, it also has limitations and challenges. These include the cost of equipment and software and the need for specialized training. Additionally, large file sizes and data management complexities can pose challenges for storage and retrieval.
