Fusion Parasitology Suite: Trichrome Solution
Studies show that up to 98% of Trichrome-stained slides are negative1. Reading them requires skilled technologists who can be difficult to find and retain. It’s difficult and monotonous, and looking eight hours a day through a microscope can cause repetitive stress injuries.
The solution is designed to help technologists quickly eliminate negative samples using a web browser on a computer monitor, allowing them to focus on the positive cases.
