The versatility needed to make the transition to digital pathology
The foundation of the digital pathology process is the digital slide image. To achieve the most benefi t from digital pathology, you need the best digital slide images from scanners that offer unrivaled power and control. Expand beyond microscopes and glass slides and transform your anatomic pathology lab into a fl exible digital pathology environment with the VENTANA iScan Coreo scanner for in vitro diagnostic use.
• Versatile scanner for small- to medium-volume labs
• Excellent image quality
• User-friendly walk-away automation
Experience the digital pathology transformation with the iScan Coreo scanner.

Roche Digital Pathology solutions — transforming your lab to improve patient care
With our VENTANA Virtuoso software, the iScan Coreo scanner provides users with a complete anytime/anywhere digital pathology solution, streamlined from image acquisition through customized reporting to increase operational efficiencies and productivity in the pathology lab.
iScan Coreo scanner
Enhanced slide loading • Walk-away scanning for up to 160 slides• Brightfield scanning — scans a 15 x 15 mm tissue area
at 20X in less than two minutes • Identify slides accurately with barcode detection
Automated turret • Automated slide detection with four objectives, for optical scanning at 4X, 10X, 20X and 40X magnifications
• Live Mode facilitates remote microscopy• Automated turret saves time compared to switching
objectives manually
Excellent image quality • Crisp, responsive, high quality images at all magnifications
Workflow efficiency • Automatic slide detection and automatic tissue detection of Area(s) of Interest (AOIs) on slides saves time
Scanning flexibility • Areas of Interest (AOIs) can be resized • Slide settings can be set per slide, per rack,
or per batch • Support for volume scanning (“Z-stacking”)
Fully integrated with the Virtuoso software
• Images are sent automatically to the Virtuoso image server after scanning
• The unique slide identifier is sent to the Virtuoso software and used to associate the slide images with the correct case information from the LIS
View crisp, high-qualityimages with Image Viewer
• Integrated with Image Viewer for comprehensive image viewing and annotation capabilities — including measurement tools, free-hand mark-up and text fields
• Images can be viewed at magnifications up to 80X (achieved with digital zoom)
