DIGITAL MICROSCOPE

摘要

A method and a computer-readable medium containing instructions to perform a method including sensing an image without magnification of a portion of a tissue sample on a substrate with a sensor; displaying the sensed image on a display at a sensor to display pixel ratio greater than one to one; and performing at least one of the following: refreshing the sensed image at a predetermined rate, storing the sensed image, modifying the sensor to display pixel ratio, and sensing a magnified view of an area of the portion of the tissue sample. An apparatus including a digital microscope (150) comprising: at least one image sensor (160); a stage (180) configured to support at least one microscope slide (210); a first optic (168) configured to project an image with a magnification of one or less; a second optic (170) disposed between the at least one sensor and the stage, the second optic configured to project an image with a magnification greater than one; and a light source (195, 196); and a computer (110) coupled to the digital microscope (150) and operable to direct an image capture by the at least one image sensor of a portion of a microslide on the stage projected through the first optic or the second optic.
