Pannoramic SCAN II 2.2.0 User’s Guide 5.2.1 Profile Settings panel
Caution!
It requires lots of time (since it cannot find focus neither on the edges, nor
on specks) to digitize coverslip edges. Select Remove coverslip function to
eliminate those areas.
Warning!
Do not use Remove coverslip function on TMA slides! The layout of TMA
slides may mislead the detecting algorithm.
◦ Fill holes inside the scanmap – If selected, the holes inside the specimen will also be
scanned. Often these holes contain small sample objects that otherwise would not be
scanned.
◦ Remove specks – If selected, the scanner does not digitize objects smaller than the
predetermined size. This helps filtering specks and other uninteresting objects out. Set
the maximum size of specks not to be digitized by adjusting the Speck size slider.
◦ Dilate mask – Adjust the slider to enlarge or decrease the scanned area. The edge is
extended discretely by 100 µm each time.
Scanmap option
The previously saved scanmap can be loaded for use.
• Use Threshold: Preview settings set in Microscope Controller Panel / Preview window are
applied to create a scanmap.
• Loaded scanmap: This function is useful if the slides contain areas of interest that cannot be
detected by the preview camera. This function along with saving profiles helps to scan all
slides with the most adequate settings.
To load a mask, click first, then browse for the scanmap to be loaded.
• Custom scanmap: The scanmap drawn on the preview image is used for scanning.
• Use selection box restriction
If selected, only the area inside the box is scanned. It is useful if you only want to scan the
area that is equivalent with the size of the coverslip, so external specks will not be scanned.
