Check Slide Dimensions
While slides are specified as being 25 mm x 75 mm, manufacturing
tolerances may lead to dimensions that are too small or large to be
compatible with Visium CytAssist. Tissue slide dimensions must be
within 24.8 mm - 25.3 mm in width and 74.4 mm - 76.2 mm in length to
fit the Visium CytAssist Tissue Slide Cassette.
•
Minimum slide dimensions: 24.8 x 74.4 mm
•
Maximum slide dimensions: 25.3 x 76.2 mm
