Stereo Investigator®- Whole Slide Edition
Quantitative Analysis Using Stereology on Whole Slide Images
| Design-based stereology is a set of data analysis methods that ensure integrity in the quantitative analysis of the size, shape, and number of objects in a tissue sample. Stereology produces results that are unbiased and more reliable than non-stereologic analyses. Stereo Investigator Whole Slide Edition is a specialized software application for analyzing whole slide image data accurately and efficiently. |  |
The Whole Slide version of Stereo Investigator is optimized for whole slide images and has a user interface that has been honed to be efficient and easy to learn.
Researchers use Stereo Investigator Whole Slide Edition to Perform Analysis of:
- cell population number
- fiber and capillary length
- area and volume of anatomical regions
- area and volume of cells
- area and volume fraction of Alzheimer plaques
Stereo Investigator Whole Slide Edition can Analyze Image Data Sets Acquired From:
- TissueScope and Microlucida
- Vesalius resonant scanning confocal
- Zeiss
- Hamamatsu
- Leica
- Olympus
- Huron
- Hamamatsu
- Aperio
- and more...

Integrates with our Full Suite of Products
Get the most of whole slide images by scanning with the TissueScope slide scanner, to storing and sharing using our image management platform Biolucida, to reconstructing with the 3D BrainMaker, and analyzing using Neurolucida 360 (for automatic 3D neuron reconstruction) and Stereo Investigator Whole Slide Edition.
Watch a Webinar where Drs. Dan Peruzzi and Nathan O’Connor introduce Stereo Investigator - Whole Slide Edition, designed specifically to perform unbiased stereology on large, whole slide images, and demonstrate probes. They also discuss data workflows, including whole slide scanning using our scanning technologies, and slide management using Biolucida.
