- Fast delivery of urgent cases directly to the pathologist’s viewing station
Precision, Potential to Scale, and Peace of Mind
Digital pathology scan speeds have not always been fast enough at 40x magnification to keep up with high-volume scanning (120k+ slides per year). Real-Time Focusing (RTF)** offers a potential solution to this problem. It’s a novel method to capture a digital image that combines an imaging line sensor and a focusing line sensor.
- While scanning, the focusing line sensor receives focusing data of the tissue.
- Proprietary algorithms determine the best focus value.
- Then, each best focus value is treated like a control loop with the mechanics, feeding the best focus value to the objective height on the fly.
- The positioning adjustments of the objective are performed continuously (in real time) in order to enable the imaging line sensor to capture the image at its best possible focus. Hence, real time focusing.
Excellent Image Quality with Custom-Made Leica Objective
The high-performance objectives included with the Aperio GT 450 DX is specifically designed to maximise field of view for high speed digital pathology scanning. Most objectives are designed similarly to the human eye: round, which focuses light in the center and limits field of view. The objectives on the Aperio GT 450 DX includes an extra-wide flat field correction that enables a much larger field of view (1mm) that can accommodate extremely large digital images for fast scans and 0.26 um/pixel resolution at 40x magnification.
