Abstract
An alignment marker unit for an object holder for microscopic imaging of an object with a microscope, wherein the alignment marker unit can be removed from and remounted on the object holder, wherein the alignment marker unit has at least one alignment marker for microscope-supported detection, and wherein the alignment marker is designed to determine a coordinate system for the object holder which allows for the microscope-supported calibration of the object or an area of the object relative to its position to the object holder and the position of the object holder relative to the microscope. Furthermore, an object holder system including an object holder and an alignment marker unit as described above is provided.
