Whether you work with Tissue MicroArrays or perform image analysis, you won't believe the power, speed, and automation at your disposal. Perform high volumes of analysis in half the time. Go further in depth than ever before. Conduct analyses that were previously impossible or prohibitively expensive. Aperio solutions can aid a number of research tasks:

Spotlight on Research

Here are a few of the ways our customers are putting Aperio solutions to work in a research environment.

The Human Proteome Resource Center in Sweden is generating millions of digital slides for its Human Protein Atlas. To date, there are more than 2.8 million images corresponding to more than 3000 antibodies publicly available. Take a look!
University of Leeds, one of the top research universities in the UK, uses Aperio systems to support a broad array of initatives including routine pathology reporting, clinical trials, tissue banks, research and bioinformatics efforts.

Expand Your Research Horizons

Aperio has created a mix of products and services to meet your research needs.

TMALab provides powerful management of high density tissue microarray images. Our system manages all TMA processes from the point of selecting study specimen to designing the array blocks, scanning, analyzing digital array slides, and correlating analytical data with clinical data.

Aperio has the most comprehensive image analysis platform for digital pathology. Use it to

  • Perform repetitive tasks
  • Perform rare event detection
  • Quantify the extent of different stains
  • Conduct quantification (classify and count) analysis
  • Frame more comprehensive analytical questions

In research, time is money. Let Aperio show you how to automate repetitive tasks and get results faster. Objectively score samples, pre-screen for anomalies, and analyze entire slides. > Learn more.

Spectrum Plus is the perfect digital slide management tool for research. It allows infinite flexibility and control over your images and data, from one simple project to multiple projects with differing levels of complexity and associated data. Fully configurable to meet your workflow needs, Spectrum Plus lets you see and manage all the information associated with your project the way you want to see it. > Learn more about Spectrum digital slide management capabilities.

Whatever your scanning capacity needs, Aperio's got you covered. The ScanScope XT is for projects that require high throughput automated scanning. For smaller capacity scanning, the ScanScope CS answers the call. Specialized scanning needs are covered with the ScanScope OS, purpose-built for hematopathology and microbiology applications that require magnifications up to 100X. If you prefer, use our Slide Scanning Service and leave the scanning to us. Our team of technicians will scan your slides according to your requirements and deliver them back to you, along with a DVD containing their digital slide counterparts.

Ready to employ remote access but not ready to set it up at your site? Our Digital Slide Hosting Service is the answer. Let us host your digital slides and you'll get all the benefits of digital pathology while we maintain the software, hardware, and other IT components for you. > More on hosting service
