APPLIED IMAGE Launches a New NIST Traceable Color Calibration Slide for Whole Slide Imagers

The NIST Traceable Color Transmission Calibration Slide (p/n IAM-9C), launched in 2018 , now has a thinner design . This thinner design will help users achieve better fit, focus, and functionality when the slide is used with industry-standard equipment.

"By offering both slide designs, we've made it easier for customers to achieve first-time use success. We're excited that we have products that customers can use in their current image analysis or whole-slide-imaging applications. Having a NIST traceable color calibration standard is the critical first step in ensuring color standardization in both intra- and inter-lab environments," said Glenn Jackling CEO, APPLIED IMAGE.

IAM-9C-WSI and IAM-9C- Description

Microscopy color patches for assessing color accuracy. NIST traceable calibration data for each large color patch is supplied as spectral transmission. By using the supplied

spreadsheet, this data can be converted to the color space you need (such as Adobe RGB 1998, L*A*B*, XYZ, etc.)

The film is permanently sandwiched between glass; atmospheric deterioration of the measured values is minimized.

Each slide is individually serialized and calibrated.

Both slides are mounted on a base of D263 optical glass, with an overall thickness of under 1.2MM.

The product s i nclude Calibration Certificate, Calibration Data Report, Conversion Spreadsheet, USB Flash Drive with Data and Spreadsheet, and Protective Case .

The APPLIED IMAGE facility is ISO 9001:2015 certified, and its calibration lab is ISO 17025:2017 accredited, ensuring high quality, accurate, and consistent performance.
