Motic Microscopes launches One-click Digital Slide Scanner

Motic Instruments, the established manufacturer of Light Microscopes and microscope cameras, announces first steps into the application field of digital scanning. MoticEasyScan is an efficient scanning instrument for producing and sharing high-quality digital images. Simple and easy, the implemented software allows untrained users a quick and reliable data acquisition: one click starts a complete scanning process. This conversion of glass slide information into digital data embodies several advantages. Safe storage of fragile information, sharing of clinical expertise and worldwide networking will have a great impact in any public health system. 

Moreover, digitised slides are a fast and easily accessible tool for a modern style of university teaching. Hundreds of sample slides, some of them delicate and with rare cases can be delivered in an identical quality to every student. Typical characteristics, single anomalies: thanks to internet access students can work from home in an efficient educational experience.

“The MoticEasyScan is dedicated to hospitals and institutes with a medium amount of slide samples to be treated. But also in university teaching it will find an essential field of application,” Dr Hans-Jürgen Klemenz, product manager in Motic Europe, stated.

Maximum image quality is given by especially designed High NA Apochromatic objectives. The progressive scan mode ensures a long-lifetime by minimising moving parts. The six-position slide tray accepts a wide slide dimension tolerance. As no high-priced glass slides are needed, running costs are cut back.

The MoticEasyScan will be available from winter 2015 onwards. Click here to learn more about it.
