Scratching the surface of quantitative dermatopathology

Quantitative dermatopathology is just scratching the surface with digital pathology

Bridge scanning of implanted materials

We have a number of multi-modal whole slide scanning techniques that we call bridge scanning, where a number of fluorescent and brightfield scans are overlaid, either from a single slide or from multiple consecutive sections. In this example, we are using FACTS with other consecutive sections to identify biocompatible responses to implanted biopolymers. We can [...]

Quantitating Elastic Fibers in Pig Aorta

This example came from healthy porcine aorta that was stained with Hematoxylin and Eosin (H&E). Using an area-based algorithm, we can quantitatively evaluate the sample for elastin percentage. Elastin is a critical component of the microstructure within large arteries such as the aorta. This type of quantitative analysis can be performed on various types of [...]
