Aperio GT 450 - Automated, High Capacity Digital Pathology Scanner with 3 New Features

Integrating Innovation with Automation for the Research Laboratory

At Leica Biosystems, we aim to enable researchers to accelerate their journey, transforming scientific exploration into translational outcomes. Our goal is to shape the future with novel technologies that inspire every researcher’s exploration of biology.

The Aperio GT 450 is proven scanning technology that consists of three upgrades that improve image quality and flexible scanning solutions in research settings: Z-Stack Scanning, Automatic Narrow Stripe, and 20x Magnification.

Z-Stack Scanning
Multiplane scanning that produces a composite, 3D image that enables research pathologists to review slide samples at varied levels of thickness, similar to a traditional microscope.

Automatic Narrow Stripe Scanning
Quality control that enables an automatic rescan of a slide when the system detects image quality issues resulting from a tilted slide or tilted tissue. Allows users to save time in their workflow by not re-preparing or readjusting slides, thus reducing labor hours.

20x Magnification
In addition to 40x magnification, operators will have the option to scan slides at 20x magnification – our solution to saving space.
