[Histonet] Image analysis and slide scanning machine

[Z. Patel]

I think a machine called MicroTech 4000, or something along those lines, will
scan an entire slide.

Hello everyone,
 
Years ago, I heard of a machine that you could load an entire slide into,
scan the slide and then do image analysis on the tissue.  I have no idea who
made this machine or even how to search for such a thing on the internet (or
the histonet archives).  If anyone has the name of this company, can someone
please let me know.
 
I am currently doing measurements of pancreatic islets as well as
measurements of whole mouse pancreas'.  I am needing to take 4-6 pictures
per pancreas in order to do this, and it is very time consuming (these
studies have up to 90 animals in them).  I need a quicker and easier way to
do this!
 
Help!
 
Kim
