Digital Cell Morphology System

The CellaVision® DC-1 is designed to automate and simplify the process of performing blood cell differentials in low-volume laboratories. The system leverages high-speed robotics and digital imaging to automatically locate and capture high quality images of cells. It allows both stand-alone and networked installation.

In a stand alone low-volume hematology laboratory the CellaVision® DC-1 innovates the process of performing cell differentials.

When used in a small satellite site in a health network the CellaVision® DC-1 allows the process and review of blood smears locally and remotely as well as improving collaboration with colleagues and morphology experts at other sites.

Slide reading is a mandatory step in laboratories, to confirm severe pathology diagnosis. Thanks to this automated pre-classification of blood cells morphology, the digitalization solution will allow you to save time and to get a reading standardization, compared to the use of a traditional microscope.
