ABSTRACT:
Method and system for imaging and analyzing a biological specimen on a specimen carrier, such as a slide. One or more imagers acquire images of a biological specimen on a slide and generate electronic image data. One or more analysis computers, such as a cluster of analysis computers, are connected to the imagers through a network and process the electronic image data. The number of analysis computers can be different than the number of imagers, and analysis computers can be located remotely from the imagers. The results of processing by the analysis computers are stored to a database, which is accessible by one or more review stations.
