CellaVision® DC-1

Overview

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.

• Automatically captures digital images of cells from blood smears

Loading Capacity of 1 slides

• Approximately 10 slides throughput / h*

• Creates digital scan of pre-defined area of any interesting specimen

*Processing time may vary depending on smear quality, WBC concentration and number of non-WBCs.
