Create a Scan
When using the EPSON Perfection V850 Pro to create high resolution scans of your
slides, it is important to take note of the following:
o
Create your optical pre-measurement scan before matrix coating.
While the IntelliSlide sprayer mask will keep the barcode, Bruker logo, and teach
marks at the far edges free of matrix, visualization of tissue regions is hindered
by matrix coating.
o
The scan should be created with the slide facing upwards
.
This will prevent your sample from touching the surface of the scanner. The slide
is facing upwards if the inscribed numbers and Bruker logo are legible.
