Lamina
Lamina is a high-throughput multilabel slide scanner that delivers the
highest quality H&E, IHC and immunofluorescence whole-slide images
for research pathology. With our unique technology we reduce
autofluorescence and correct cross talk to give the clearest visualization
of fluorescently labeled markers in FFPE tissues.
More accurate results improving our
understanding of disease

Immune Cell Phenotyping in Solid Tumors
Our approach allows different phenotypes to be visualized and
quantified simultaneously in the same tissue section, enabling
researchers to study the relationships and distribution of these cells
within tumors and the tumor microenvironment

Benefits of using multispectral imaging
Multispectral imaging technology is used to acquire images at many wavelengths
to better determine fluorophore/stain distribution in cells or tissue

490nm

Monochrome
Color (RGB)
Multispectral
Acquiring a series of narrow-band monochrome images leads to a
spectrum of the sample at each pixel
1. Take images at different wavelengths with
a CCD
5 Quantum dot vials
525, 565, 585, 605 and 655 nm
2. Assemble the data into a “cube” in memory
3. This creates a spectrum
at every pixel of the CCD

Bottom line: We can separate
as many colors as you can
reliably put into your sample
…more than meets the eye
inForm is user-trained to find regions of interest
1. Load images
2. Draw training regions
3. Segment image
