Description
In this paper we develop and compare several multi-resolution microscope slide scanning algorithms of increasing complexity. The algorithms utilise a low-resolution image of the whole sample to optimise the high-resolution scan in terms of decreasing the number of field-of-view (FOV) images required. This approach, while commonly applied in microscopy, has never been fully evaluated to quantify expected improvements in scan time when the high-resolution scans are optimised on each sample. In addition, the methods have potential to improve image quality by reducing both image stitching and focus tracking artefacts. © 2011 IEEE.
Impact and interest:
Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
