Diagnostic Transmission Electron Microscopy

The high resolution and sensitivity of electron microscopy is still a valuable tool, and for some diseases it is the gold standard in pathological diagnosis. Today the sample turnaround time for processing in the lab can be significantly reduced from days to hours by the microwave technology. In urgent clinical cases, microwave-assisted tissue processing, in combination with digital image acquisition, enables a "same-day" diagnosis. Ultrastructural telepathology allows instant and live second opinion retrieval from a remote expert worldwide.

UltraPath XVI - Conference on Diagnostic Electron Microscopy, Basic Research & Oncology

The 16th Meeting of the Society for Ultrastructural Pathology (UltraPath XVI) will be held on August 6-10, 2012 in the historical town of Regensburg, Germany. The Society was formed in 1986 with the mission to support and promote the application of electron microscopy in pathological diagnosis and research of human diseases. Over the years the scope of biennial meetings expanded and includes immunochemistry, molecular and cellular biology. moreOct. 28, 2011

True Colour LED Illumination for Clinical Microscopy

The BX3 clinical microscope system from Olympus is used for analysis and disease diagnosis in pathology and cytology. Images with accurately rendered colours are created with a true colour LED illumination technology and built in Light Intensity Manager (LIM). moreAug. 17, 2011

Olympus Introduces Automatic Virtual Slide Scanning System VS120

Olympus has introduced its automatic virtual slide scanning system VS120 for use in research, pathology and teaching. moreFeb. 22, 2010

Digital Imaging for Pathology and Research

Olympus has introduced an improved version of its successful dotSlide virtual slide system. The new VS110 combines microscopy seamlessly with imaging to create a virtual slide that is an exact copy of the real specimen. Generating a high resolution image of the whole specimen, this can be viewed and analyzed from the overview image at low magnification up to maximum magnification by simply zooming in. All samples can be evaluated around the world instantly and simultaneously as they are stored electronically on a central server. moreNov. 01, 2007

Digital Pathology Solution: Image Solutions' “Tissue-Mine”

Digital Pathology Solution: Image Solutions' “Tissue-Mine”. Image Solutions has launched "Tissue-Mine", a user friendly web based digital pathology solution. It has been designed by pathologists to automate the pathology workflow for research and development. Improving efficiency, accelerating the workflow and minimising bottlenecks in an otherwise manual process. It is now possible to reduce analysis time from weeks to minutes without the process being subject to user variability. more
