Executive Summary
Pathology workflow hasn’t changed much since the field began some 100 years ago – tissue is sectioned with a microtome, mounted to a glass slide, and placed into a microscope – but the process could dramatically change for the better, thanks to the digital Knife Edge Scanning Microscope from 3Scan Inc. What has traditionally been a manual and qualitative process, KESM facilitates with high throughput, quantified image analysis and computation of tissue sliced as thin as 1 micron.
