Complete digital pathology solutions
With an easy-to-use Pathologist’s cockpit, coupled with easy integration into the laboratory information system (LIS), the Aperio AT2 provides an ideal platform.
Small footprint, high throughput
The streamlined design of the Aperio AT2 with compact carousel for up to 400 slides and low operating noise, means it takes up minimal bench space allowing busy, crowded labs to readily implement digital pathology.
Improved automation
*98% of slides are captured first time in automatic mode, streamlining workflow and eliminating time spent on rescans. The LED light source and calibration controls ensure consistent, high quality scanning.
*Based on a Aperio AT2 scanning a 15x15mm area at 20x magnification.
Tissue Finder
The Aperio AT2 tissue finder is very robust but flexible when needed. The area of interest can be adjusted by the user to optimize tissue finding on difficult samples (such as fatty tissue) or to not detect ink or stain residue
We've used Aperio instruments to scan well over 100,000 slides and had great success with the images that were generated using them" Source: TechValidate. TVID: 445-F03-4C1
