Proven Technology for Researchers

Effortless scanning, exceptional results with excellent image quality, innovative technology and seamless integration – all driven towards faster turnaround time and accuracy for your important projects

Delivering researchers with an efficient solution for variability in slide preparation, Manual Scan provides:

Faster slide delivery with immediate rescanning from the same location.

Quick resolution of image issues by lab technicians including faintly stained IHC slides, small tissue fragments, low density tissues etc.

High-quality slides from challenging tissues.

Streamlined workflow and improved lab efficiency.

Extended Focus

Experience an efficient imaging solution that improves image quality while reducing storage needs. Extended Focus features include:

Viewing all cells in focus on a single image, eliminating the need to scroll through layers.

Smaller file sizes than Z-Stack images speed up file transfers, improving collaborative activities.

Ideal in applications where thick specimens are viewed, which make the extended depth of field of images an issue to address.

DICOM with 20x,40x and Z-Stack

Aperio GT 450 uses a high-performance objective manufactured by Leica Microsystems, which has produced world-class optics since 1847. Leica optics deliver exceptional image quality

Available alongside.svs, DICOM enables image clarity, improved collaboration and a streamlined workflow.

20x and 40x options for clear and detailed views of samples

Z-Stacking enables the review of slide samples at varied heights

Proven Technology for Lab Managers

Deliver rapid results with confidence. The Aperio GT 450 is simple to operate and helps you complete scanning quickly and easily, so you can focus on other tasks in the lab: 15 racks of 30 slides (450 slides total) can be loaded directly from HistoCore SPECTRA CV Coverslipper into the Aperio GT 450. The slides are then automatically scanned at 81 slides per hour at 40x for a 15mm x 15mm area.

Providing lab technicians with an intuitive and efficient scanning solution, the benefits of Manual Scan include:

Easy-to-learn functionality that technicians can quickly navigate. Choose the scan area, set focus points and calibrate with ease.

Enhanced control and confidence throughout the scanning process.

Ability to successfully scan challenging slides with greater ease.

Improved workflow efficiency.

Default Calibration Point

The Aperio GT 450 Default Calibration Point reduces the chance of striping from the start, allowing lab managers to maintain image clarity and avoid corrective measures. This ensures consistently high-quality results with no extra effort.

Aperio iQC software

Optional Aperio iQC software enhances image quality control, ensuring confidence before scans are delivered to the researcher.
