Pannoramic SCAN 150 1.15 User’s Guide
4 Software Description
Scan Settings
•
Interpolated focus distance – the distance of focal points can be set to create a focus map,
based on which the software calculates interpolated focus values (one step in distance
means one FOV).
•
Use Stitching
function enables the seamless stitching of digital tiles.
•
Save image in original Bayer size
function is only available for products installed with
Stingray camera. It is not accessible for configurations installed with CIS and AxioCam MRm
Rev 3.
Image fields will be saved with native pixel resolution. If this function is disabled, you will
work with reduced pixel resolution. These resolution differences are not really visible with
the human eye, what is important in this feature is the resulting smaller file size.
Brightfield Compensation
The
Use saved compensation image
function enables to use previously recorded reference
images for all slides. Use this function when the slide is completely covered by the specimen
(for example, blood smear) thereby making compensation image capture impossible. For
such slides, use an empty slide with coverslip to grab a compensation image (for more
information, see section
4.2.2 Image Compensation / Brightfield Compensation
). If you
select this, the software will not create new compensation images for each slide.
Compensation images are reference images used for white balancing and shading.
The
Scanned slide destination
field determines where to digitize the virtual slides.
•
To be able to choose the
Scan to CaseCenter
function, you have to install the ScanToServer
application.
For information on how to install and use the ScanToServer application, see section
•
If you enable the
Directory
function, the virtual slides will be digitized in the specified
folder. You can browse for the folder with the
Browse
button. If you specify a folder that
does not exist, the software will create it.
All parameter inputs are saved for the next software session.
