Abstract
An imaging system for collecting images of signals associated with a sample tile comprising a stage supporting the sample tile, a ring illuminator system emitting a uniform excitation energy upon an entirety of the sample tile causing at least a first signal to be generated from the sample tile, and an image collecting device collecting a first image of the first signal. The image collecting device further collecting a second image of a second signal emitted from the sample tile, wherein the second signal being different than the first signal.
Claims1
An imaging system for collecting images of signals associated with a sample tile, the imaging system comprising:
