About dIFine® automated microscope

The dIFine® automated microscope is a fully automated IFA microscope, which improves the laboratory workflow significantly. With the small footprint of just 40 x 47cm², it can be accommodated in compact laboratory spaces. The high throughput of 8 seconds per well* and the capacity of up to 96 fields per run ensure a long walk away time combined with a high performance. The automated image acquisition, analysis, display and storage streamlines the everyday workflow.

The built-in classifier can identify and suggest different ANA patterns by means of the most advanced artificial intelligence (Homogeneous, Nucleolar, Centromere, Speckled, Cytoplasmic (Ribosomal), Cytoplasmic (Mitochondrial), Nuclear Dots, Nuclear Membrane). Negative samples can be released in batches, so not every single negative picture needs to be evaluated. During the result interpretation also the integrated image atlas ensures easy validations with a possible side-by-side reference.

All slides are equipped with a 2D barcode, which identifies the slide, but also includes information about Lot Number and expiration date for a full traceability all the way to the LIS system(1). The high-quality optics within the microscope provide vibrant colors and the long lasting LED illumination together with the state-of-the-art camera create brilliant pictures for an easy interpretation.

Key benefits

Fast Processing

Our system records images at an impressive 8 seconds per well(2), with up to 96 fields per run. Get results faster than ever before!

AI-Powered Recommendations

Harness the power of artificial intelligence. Our built-in classifier recognizes various ANA patterns, including Homogeneous, Nucleolar, Centromere, Speckled, Cytoplasmic (Ribosomal), Cytoplasmic (Mitochondrial), Nuclear Dots, and Nuclear Membrane — providing diagnostic support and streamlining your decision-making process.

Validation Made Easy

Validate results confidently. The integrated Image Atlas, aligned with ICAP nomenclature, provides side-by-side references for easy validation.

Batch Release Efficiency

Save time by releasing negative samples in batches. Our system optimizes your workflow, allowing you to focus on what truly matters.

Traceability and Control

Never lose track of your slides. The 2D barcode identifies each slide, ensuring full traceability. Plus, data is seamlessly transferred to your LIS system(1).

Stunning Visuals

Experience brilliant images with our high-quality microscope optics. See details like never before.

Perfect Pairing

Seamlessly integrate with the dIFine® P30 processor. One computer controls both systems, saving you valuable workspace.
