[Histonet] flat bed scanners

[Marshall Terry Dr, Consultant Histopathologist]

Bill,
This is fascinating information, but we could do with knowing a bit more.
What are CCD and CMOS? How do you tell what scanner is/does/uses what?
Look at the specification for what? What is good and what is bad?

This is a completely new one to me, and I'm sure we would all like to here a fuller story.
(See what you've done now - let yourself in for it :-) )

For 3D objects CCD scanners are much better than the cheaper CMOS 
scanners, for depth of field reasons. There are a number out there, 
but you have to look at the specs. I use UMAX Powerlook IIIs.
