The Mi macro imaging station provides the perfect environment for the capture of unfixed and fixed gross specimen images in the mortuary or path lab. It is ideal for pathologists in healthcare environments, veterinary, research and forensic laboratories. The capture of gross specimens before cut-up is the first step in creating an entire pathology case history and provides a convenient point of reference that can enhance the interpretation and understanding of subsequent tissue sections. Images can be saved for use in case records, as part of an audit trail, and for annotation and use in downstream analyses and applications.
