•
Scan specimen with user set threshold
–
This sets the sensitivity of the specimen detection.
To set the desired threshold value manually, change the setting in the
Specimen threshold
level
selection box in the range of
0-255
. The default value is
35
.
Smaller values result in a more sensitive scanning, meaning that more areas will be digitized,
however, this may also include specks or other imperfections of the slide.
Greater values result in a less sensitive scanning, but it is possible that some of the smaller
specimen areas will not be digitized.
•
Scan area inside the marker
–
If the specimen cannot be identified as required for
digitization, (for example, weak contrast), it can help to encircle completely the specimen
with a black marker pen.
You have to draw a full circle with the pen to enable the detection. Marker pen detection will
make specimen detection easier by limiting the scanned area.
If this option is selected, only the area encircled with a marker pen will be scanned. You can
define the threshold level by changing the threshold value in the
Marker threshold level
selection box in the range of
0-255
.
This sets the sensitivity of the specimen detection inside the marker area. To set the desired
threshold value manually, change the setting in the
Specimen threshold level
selection box in
the range of
0-255
. The default value is
35
.
