Digital pathology solutions

Species-dependent methods:
Plant pathology (phytopathology)
Veterinary pathology (animal health, experimental models, toxicology)
Human pathology (screening, clinical pathology, clinical research)

Specimen-dependent methods: Spatial information
Cytology (isolated cells: cytospins, smears or cultures from body fluids)
Fine-needle aspirates
Histology (tissue sections: fixed, paraffin-embedded or frozen tissue biopsies)

Staining-dependent methods: Specificity
Routine stain (nucleus and cytoplasm by Hematoxylin and Eosin) No to Low
Special stains (cell components by chemical reactions with dyes)
Immunochemistry (antigens by chromogenic or fluorogenic IHC and ICC)
In situ hybridization (DNA and RNA by FISH, CISH, SISH etc)


Imaging-dependent methods: Automation
Manual microscopy and digital image acquisition
Microscopy with motorized stage and digital image sampling
Microscopy with slide loader and digital image sampling
Whole slide scanning
