Dermatopathology Lab Chooses Lumenera Cameras for Speed and Clarity in Microscopy
New Private Dermatopathology Clinic Provides Personal Care
4 Mar 2016In this case study Lumenera demonstrate the high image quality of its microscopy cameras, image quality, especially clarity of color, is essential in dermatopathology as the diagnosis relies of microscopy photographs of stained tissue. Lumenera’s INFINITY 2-5 CCD camera was suited for the teaching side of the dermatopathology clinic as its ImageJ application allowed for easy editing and viewing on the Mac system.
