It's Time for a 180 - Because Proven Technology Means Better Pathology
The Aperio GT 180 DX scanner delivers the excellent image quality and speed of trusted Aperio scanners in a design that works for your clinical laboratory.
For many pathologists, the shift to digital pathology still feels like a daunting task. Teams are navigating increasing pressure to do more with less, all while balancing tight timelines and growing expectations around collaboration and consistency. Modern labs need a digital pathology slide scanner that’s compact, cost-effective, and capable of delivering high-quality results without expert-level training.
*Optional features to meet your workflow requirements. Some features may not be available in all countries.
For In Vitro Diagnostic Use
Designed For You
Gain control over slide capture, which helps ensure high-quality images from even the most challenging tissue samples. Quickly rescan slides from the same location, making real-time adjustments to faint stains, small tissue fragments, or low-density samples. This feature minimizes workflow disruptions and enhances image clarity and consistency.
Optional Aperio iQC DX software enhances automatic image quality control, ensuring confidence before scans are delivered. Using AI-enabled detection, it identifies whole slide image (WSI) artifacts and provides notifications through a quality control dashboard, flagging issues and recommending corrective actions so anyone in the lab can rescan.
An efficient imaging solution that enhances image quality while optimizing storage needs. By combining multiple focus layers into a single, ultra-sharp image, Extended Focus ensures all cells remain in focus without requiring users to scroll through layers. Smaller file sizes speed up data transfer, facilitating faster collaboration and enabling remote access to high-quality images.
Default Calibration Point reduces the risk of striping from the start, allowing lab managers to maintain image clarity without additional adjustments. technicians benefit from a streamlined scanning process that enhances efficiency and delivers consistently high-quality results with minimal effort.
Aperio GT 180 scanner uses a high-performance objective manufactured by Leica Microsystems, which has produced world-class optics since 1847. Leica optics deliver exceptional image quality.
*Optional Features
Twenty-five+ years of digital pathology expertise can help everyone in your clinical lab take the next step into digital pathology with confidence. With more than 70 third-party software integrations, 9 generations of scanning pedigree, and 380+ patents, our innovation ensures interoperability and efficiency across your entire pathology workflow.
Deliver diagnostic confidence with expertly engineered Leica optics, producing consistently high-quality digital slides that reveal critical details, even in complex cases. Seamlessly integrated into clinical workflows, the Aperio GT 180 DX scanner enables rapid case turnaround, streamlined collaboration, and reproducible results that support timely, informed diagnoses.
Easy to use and intuitive to learn, the continuous loading, high-automation, and small footprint enables labs to enjoy a smooth, stress-free digital pathology workflow. Advanced feature options such as Manual Scanning*, for challenging slides, and Aperio iQC DX software*, to streamline quality control review, ensure hassle-free, high-quality scans.
Secure, scalable, and easy to integrate; seamlessly connect the Aperio GT 180 DX scanner to your lab’s existing systems and infrastructure and leverage the widely used .svs or standardized DICOM file format for rapid integration with downstream software.
Capture every critical detail with exceptional clarity, from cellular grooves and chromatin structure to intracellular bridges in H&E, or crisp, clear images of your IHC, ISH, and brightfield multiplex slides.
Digital pathology scan speeds have not always been fast enough at 40x magnification to keep up with high-volume scanning (120k+ slides per year).
Real-Time Focusing (RTF)** offers a potential solution to this problem. It’s a novel method to capture a digital image that combines an imaging line sensor and a focusing line sensor.
