Exploring the Benefits of Outsourcing Slide Scanning

If your lab is not ready to invest in a digital pathology scanner, you may still be able to take advantage of digital pathology by outsourcing your slide scanning needs to a reputable scanning service. These services offer high-quality scanning of glass slides using state-of-the-art equipment, allowing you to obtain digital images of your tissue specimens without the upfront costs of purchasing a scanner. By outsourcing your slide scanning, you can also avoid the ongoing maintenance and support costs associated with owning a scanner. Additionally, many scanning services offer quick turnaround times, enabling you to access digital images of your slides more rapidly than if you were to perform the scanning in-house. While outsourcing slide scanning may incur additional costs, it can be a cost-effective option for labs that are not yet ready to invest in their own digital pathology scanner.
