I purchased the iScan with the intention of image analysis of TMA IHC. However, at best this was a pure slide scanner doing an average job of scanning. Image analysis on tissue microarrays in full automation mode was non-existent and I ended up spending more time in IHC scoring using Tissuemine as compared to manual scoring. This is an average digital scanner that might work for tele-pathology and some basic image analysis on regular IHC sections but definitely not for TMA , IHC scoring, research etc. Customer care and after sales service is a nightmare.
