¾ÅÉ«ÊÓƵ the Biomedical digital and virtual microscopy facility
Think Google Earth for microscope slides!
Virtual microscopy systems allow you to scan an entire slide or selected regions of a slide at a chosen magnification and then zoom in and out and navigate around the scanned slide.
Scans are stored as individual image tiles which are assembled/montaged on the fly for low band width, high-resolution viewing. Our systems are equipped with adjustable sensitivity tissue content recognition and manual override. Our high throughput system can combine 4 channel fluorescent imaging with brightfield or phase contrast imaging (selected magnifications only for phase contrast).
