Slide scanners convert physical slides into digital images, which can then be analyzed using specialized software. The benefits include:
Accessibility: Digital slides can be easily shared among researchers and clinicians. Archiving: Digital storage solutions reduce the need for physical space and preserve images indefinitely. Advanced Analysis: Image analysis software can identify patterns and anomalies that might be missed by the human eye.
These features make slide scanners an invaluable tool in both research and clinical settings.
