The VS120 Slide Scanner from Olympus is convenient for automated imaging of tissue sections located on several slides.
Applications in brief
This virtual 6-slide scanning system creates high resolution images in brightfield (all magnifications), darkfield (4x, 10x, and 20x) and / or multi-fluorescence mode (all magnifications). Image stitching is very precise enabling high-level accuracy that can be applied from small animal brain slices to large specimens. Seamless switching between micro and macro observation modes enable swift viewing of regions of interest and overall structures.
