Flow Cell
Automated labeling & Image acquisition
Benefits of an Automated System
• Greatly reduced sample handling � Reduced tissue damage
• Quick turnaround
• Much easier to track the sample
Flow Cell
•~100µl flow cell is rigidly fixed to stage to maintain sampleregistration
• Tighter process control
• Microfluidics allow faster staining by maintaining a higherconcentration of stains close to tissue sample

Conclusion
Our work demonstrates a novel and versatile
system for co-localization and co-expression
studies that can be easily adapted to work
with existing commercially available
antibodies in a translational research setting.
More studies can be done using this
automated system to address challenging
questions in digital pathology
