Slide scanner data transfer and viewing

Slide scanning data files can be very large. Files often range from 5-20 GB or more depending on the scan type and the tissue area.  The SCOPE will share your data with you via a WeTransfer link. This link allows you to directly download your files. The link will be live for only a short period of time, so please download your data promptly. 

Please note: the SCOPE does not archive your data.  It is your responsibility to backup and maintain your data.  We recommend keeping at least 2 copies in separate locations. 

The TissueFAXS slide scanning microscope products .aqproj files that contain all of your data in a format that is optomized for viewing in the TissueFAXS viewer software.  When you receive your data files from the SCOPE, you will also receive a link to the latest version of the viewer for you to install. 

Here's a manual that describes how to open your data in the TissueFAXS viewer. 

Please note: the TissueFAXS Viewer software is only compatible with Windows computers.  We can provide access to Windows systems for file viewing and image analysis as needed. 

Image analysis software and assistance are available through the SCOPE.
