Our Pathscan Enabler IV, delivered July 2014, uses the QuickScan software to scan a histology slide in "two clicks" (after loading the
slide):
1. Push the QuickScan button on the front of the Pathscan Enabler.
2. Click the Scan button in the QuickScan pop-up application (optional: change scan area in the Prescan image window).
The image gets saved as a TIFF file to the Windows 7 (64-bit) desktop.
I have been using Pathscan Enabler's since version I in 2000. See Chantrain et al 2003:

Time Series Data For 3b Image Processing, George Mcnamara
Time Series Data For 3b Image Processing, George Mcnamara
George McNamara
Time series data for 3B image processing
Four time series data sets of Stellaris single molecules RNA FISH (fluorescence in situ hybridization). All four datasets are 301 imaqe planes. FISH probes are to TOP1 mRNA (Topoisomerase I)in Saos osterosarcoma cells.
One dataset is 10 millisecond exposures (very dim), acquired in Streaming acquisition mode (no hardware overhead).
The other three datasets are a three consecutive planes of the same XY field of view.
I have included image processing results for:
PiMP - a fast method developed by Sebastian Munck et al 2012, http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=22357945

The downloadable ZIP file contains old Turbo Pascal programs I wrote. These ran in Microscoft DOS and in early Windows (ex. Windows 3.1) DOS shells. They may or may not work in recent (Windows 2000, XP, Vista, 7) cmd or command "shells". No warranty. Use at your own risk. I do not expect to ever program in Turbo Pascal again so if anyone wants to "take over" my old code (and adjust copyirght notices, warnings, etc), please email me. In particular, MATH.exe had 10,000 lines of pascal code in it. Another program is LUTSconv.exe which converted Fractint MAP lookup tables …

George McNamara
Hamamatsu FLASH4.0 dark reference images, acquired with 10 second exposure times, no light to camera. Camera offset (set by Hamamatsu( is ~100 (the average intensity of the first image is always ~1 intensity level higher - an odd feature, but trivial in practice for a 16-bit camera).

Video codec performance (Excel spreadsheet). Movie was made in 2005-2006 when I worked at City of Hope National Medical Center. VTLF refers to Video Timelapse Light Facility. Videos were outputted from MetaMorph as AVI files. Personally, I always recommend uncompressed video files fro scientific uses. I also encourage posting the original scientific data format (ex. .lsm, .zvi, .lif, .stk).

Tattletales for Multiplex Fluorescent Reporters in Single Cells for Metabolomics

Email: gtmcnamara@mdanderson.org, geomcnamara@earthlink.net
Tattletales is my concept for spatial multiplexing many fluorescent protein (FP) biosensors in the same live cell. For example, there are excellent FP biosensors to Ca++ ions, pH, glucose, ribose, glutamine, glutamate, ATP, redox, ROS, pyruvate, cAMP, cGMP, IP3, PI(3,4,5)P3, cell cycle indicators (Fucci2), PKA, PKC, photsphatases, caspase(s) [1, 2]. However, these are typically used one biosensor per experiment, due in part to flooding …

Cosmic Ray Particles Images With Orca-Ii Erg, George Mcnamara
Cosmic Ray Particles Images With Orca-Ii Erg, George Mcnamara
George McNamara
Cosmic ray particles image series acquired using a Hamamatsu ORCA-II ERG scientific grade CCD camera, cooled to -60 C. Each image is a consecutive 600 second (10 minute) exposure time with no light to the camera.
While processing the data, I discoverd that the background changed around planes 25 and 227 (see Excel file and jpeg screenshots), so I also processed only planes 025-227 (203 planes total, 2030 minutes, 33.83 hours). the CCD industry "rule of thumb" for a "typical" CCD sensor (i.e. 1/3" CCD) is that one cosmic ray particle strikes a sensor approximately every 30 seconds (assuming not …

Introduction To Nanoscopy Nano-Talk, George Mcnamara
George McNamara
T7-1 is the designation for the LMRG Nanoscopy session at ABRF in Orlando, FL, on March 20, 2012. The PDF file here is a draft of my presentation.
May not be very helpful since (1) would probably help to know what is in my head and each slide will [hopefully] prompt me to say, and (2) 10 minute talk so I am going to push the "next slide" button after saying very little.

Pubspectra - Open Data Access Fluorescence Spectra, George Mcnamara
George McNamara
The Internet is enabling greater access to spectral imaging publications, spectral graphs, and data than that was available a generation ago. The spectral imaging systems discussed in this issue of Cytometry work because reagent and hardware spectra are reproducible, reusable, and provide input to spectral unmixing and spectral components recognition algorithms. These spectra need to be readily available in order to determine what to purchase, how to use it, and what the output means. We refer to several commercially sponsored and academic spectral web sites and discuss our spectral graphing and data sites. Sites include fluorescent dye graph servers from …
