Olympus has launched the new version of its range of dotSlide digital virtual microscopy systems. dotSlide 2.0 offers enhanced functionality and image quality for scanning entire slides at high resolution and fidelity, making them accessible and fully navigable, anywhere on the globe. The three available models (dotSlide MD, manual version; dotSlide SL, fully automated version with slide loader; and dotSlide TMA, with tissue microarray module) now offer more innovative features to enable users to examine virtual slides without being near a microscope, faster and even easier than before. Furthermore, Net Image Server (NIS) SQL expands the dotSlide family with a more flexible and powerful Client Server Database for the management of images and data.
