Compact design

One of the unique features of our scanner is its horizontal placement of slides, which significantly minimizes spillage from wet slides, making it ideal for labs that handle delicate samples. The open-construction design of our scanner not only enhances its aesthetic appeal and makes it incredibly easy to clean the stage. If you're concerned about space, you'll be pleased with Ocus®20's compact design, making it a perfect fit even in the most cluttered labs.

Remote use enables easy collaboration

Our user interface is designed with the end user in mind. It's easy to use and intuitive, ensuring that even those who aren't tech-savvy, can easily navigate it. One of the standout features of the scanner is remote use. A pathologist can remotely log into the scanner at a suitable time and view the images stored on the device to assess them. The possibility to use the scanner remotely means that teams can collaborate in real time without any hitches.

Integrability to existing workflows

If you have existing systems in place, the images from Ocus®20 can be easily transferred to them, ensuring a smooth transition and workflow. Our platform offers the flexibility to export data in the most common file formats used in digital pathology (.svs and .tiff), ensuring compatibility and ease of data sharing across various platforms.

File formats supported by Ocus scanners are .svs, .tiff and .jpg
