What are Common Problems with Illumination and How to Solve Them?
Several common issues can arise with illumination in histology:
Uneven Illumination: This can result from misalignment of the light source or condenser. Re-aligning these components usually solves the issue. Glare: Often caused by excessive light intensity or incorrect condenser settings. Adjusting the light intensity and properly setting up Kohler illumination can mitigate glare. Insufficient Light: This can be due to a weak light source or improper condenser adjustment. Upgrading the light source or recalibrating the condenser can help.
