Virtual Tissue 2D Extension Module

Create, view, and analyze an entire specimen
in a single high-resolution image

Using a motorized stage, the Virtual Tissue 2D extension module automatically creates a montage by collecting a series of contiguous images from a tissue specimen and aligns, stitches, and blends them together into a seamless montage. The resulting high-resolution image can be used for analysis, collaboration, and publication.

Virtual Tissue 2D stores image information in multi-level pyramidal format, with each resolution level representing a different level of magnification. This enables fast navigation to any region of the slide, at any level.

Virtual Tissue 2D is available as an extension module for Stereo Investigator, Neurolucida, and Microlucida. Now, Virtual Tissue 2D offers JPEG 2000 support, providing both high compression and superior image quality.

The Virtual Tissue 2D extension module can add significant capabilities to your system, opening the door to numerous new imaging possibilities.
