The Aperio AT2, Aperio Versa 200, and Leica SCN400 Slide Scanner are the perfect solutions for the high-resolution imaging of whole slides in bright field mode. These high-capacity robotic autoloading scanners are capable of handling 200-384 slides per run. They are ideal for large slide cohorts and tissue microarrays as well as providing a low-cost, high-resolution method to digitally archive histological slides in a range of magnifications. The DHSR also hosts a convenient, web-based digital slide-viewing environment called the Digital Slide Archvie (DSA) for research slides and Aperio's eSlideManager for clinical slides. These easy to use digital slide boxes allow researchers and clinicians to rapidly retrieve, review and annotate their scanned material in a digitally secure environment from any web browser as well as download original scan files (research only). The use of secure VUMC ID or VUNET ID allows for access from anywhere, both at VUMC or home.
20X Brightfield Scanning: $11.00 / slide | 40X Brightfield Scanning: $17.00 / slide | High-Volume Scanning: $10.00 / slide |
