OPERATION
The Imaging Complete message is displayed upon successful completion of imaging the cell spot.
Refer to
Chapter 6, Troubleshooting for any other message that may display. Touch the
Review Slide
button to continue.
The software transitions immediately to slide review, beginning with the Auto Locate sequence.
Using this sequential modality, the slide is reviewed directly after the slide is imaged.
If there is reason not to continue immediately with review of the slide, press the Cancel button to end
the session and return to the main screen. The slide may be removed from the stage. The slide can be
reviewed later. The slide data record will reflect that the imaging was complete but no slide review
took place. Using this batched modality, any number of slides can be reviewed after they have all
been imaged.
If the slide is to be reviewed, refer to the next section.
SLIDE REVIEW
Note:
During slide review, the CT may proceed through all of the fields of view in Auto Locate
without looking away from the microscope. The review control scroll wheel has the same
control functions that are displayed as touch buttons on the user interface. The user interface
is only a graphic representation of the review process. Touch screen input is only required at
the transition from Auto Locate to Auto Scan, as described in this section.
Auto Locate
The Auto Locate feature presents the 22 fields of interest that have been identified by the Integrated
Imager. The fields are presented in geographic order as they are located on the slide, not by any sig
-
nificance in ranking. The CT must scan the entire field of view for each of the 22 fields that are pre-
sented.
CAUTION:
Scan the entire field of view.
Every field is presented at 10X magnification. At each location the operator may:
• focus as necessary
• manually switch to a different objective
• move about the cell spot using the stage control knobs
• return to the previous location by pressing
Previous
using the review control or the touch
