FAQ

Questions,
answered.

What labs most often ask us about digital pathology, our scanners, and how to get started.

How many slides does the OS-Lite hold?

15 standard 1×3″ brightfield slides, or 7 frozen section slides using the custom OptraScan basket. It also accepts 20 Slide Sakura baskets.

How fast is the OS-Lite?

About 40 seconds at 20× and 90 seconds at 40× for a 15×15 mm area.

What is the difference between the OS-Lite and the OS-SiX?

The OS-Lite holds 15 slides versus 6 and scans roughly three times faster; the OS-SiX accepts larger mega-slide formats. Both weigh 55 lb.

Does the OS-Lite detect tissue automatically?

Yes. Automated tissue detection scans only areas containing tissue, and Z-stacking captures multiple focal planes.

Can OS-Lite images be stored in the cloud?

Yes. The OS-Lite is cloud-enabled and ships with IMAGEPath and TELEPath.
