Connection lines are limited, so reserve yours now. There is no charge to participate in this on-line seminar. When ===================== September 12, 2008 Friday at 10:30 AM (Pacific Time) Duration: About 45 minutes, plus questions and answers Pre-register (required) at: http://www.magworldwide.com/index.php Details: ===================== Because the size of histology and pathology specimens generally exceed the field of view of the microscope, clinicians and researchers are often confronted with making a tradeoff between field-of-view (low magnification) and ability to resolve small image details (high magnification). In either case, the relationship between microscopic features and overall structure is lost. A powerful new method, however, allows rapid and easy scanning of entire specimens under high magnification. Automatic assembly ('stitching') of the scanned images into an individual continuous image provides the ability to survey the overall structure, while preserving the very high-resolution information. At this interactive webinar, attendees will see how such a system operates and will be shown some of the many ways images can be explored, measured, presented, and archived. Subjects include: • Configuring a microscope to perform rapid scanning and tiling • User options and their implications on acquired image data • Image processing for enhancing image quality • Exploration, analysis, and annotation of images • Archival and databasing of images Bring your questions to this live, interactive web-based seminar. Provided free of charge, this webinar is sponsored by MAG, the Microimaging Applications Group. MAG is a group of imaging companies who work together to provide an unparalleled range of microimaging solutions to science and industry. About the Presenter: Nicholas Beavers is an Applications Specialist with Media Cybernetics, providers of the InVivo, Image Pro and AutoQuant families of image acquisition, processing, and analysis software. Nick has extensive hands-on experience in the configuration and programming of complex image acquisition systems for performing quantitative live-cell studies. |
