Leica Microsystems: SCN400 Slide Scanner for Fluorescence and Brightfield

At Neuroscience, Leica Microsystems presented the SCN400 hybrid slide scanner for fluorescence and brightfield imaging. Iqbal Habib, Marketing Manager, talked to M&A Editor Dr Julian Heath about the SCN400 hybrid slide scanner. Scroll down to watch the video.

With its unparalleled scanning speed and high resolution imaging, the Leica SCN400 Slide Scanner has set new standards in virtual microscopy. Fast, flexible and reliable, the Leica SCN400 with patented dynamic focus and custom-designed optics, consistently delivers precise scans at an unprecedented rapid scanning speed. In addition, the Leica SCN400 now provides an implementation of the DICOM Supplement 145 standard for slide scanning.

The slide scanner provides images of up to 40x magnification – with an average scanning time of 100 seconds for 20x magnification. Traditional (26x76 mm), double (52x76 mm) and now extra large Jumbo (113x76 mm) slides can be scanned on one system.
