Recent updates to the Aperio GT 450 introduce exciting new capabilities, including scanning at 20x, z-stack acquisition, and manual scanning options for challenging slides. These enhancements bring even greater flexibility to the Aperio GT 450 platform, building on its well-established speed and throughput advantages.

Charles River Laboratories, a long-time user of the Aperio AT2 with over a dozen units in operation at peak use, had previously relied on manual scanning capabilities for certain complex tissue types such as bone marrow, ocular tissue, small samples, and cell lines. The new Aperio GT 450 enhancements offer a bridge between the flexibility of the Aperio AT2 and the high-speed automation of the Aperio GT 450, giving laboratories even more tools to meet diverse scanning needs.

As a beta site for the enhanced features, Charles River Laboratories evaluated the latest Aperio GT 450 functionality and found the manual scanning capabilities particularly impactful. Based on their positive experience, they are now moving forward with upgrading their entire Aperio AT2 fleet to the enhanced Aperio GT 450 platform.

In this presentation, we’ll deepen your understanding of the Aperio GT 450 and explore real-world examples of the updated manual scanning features compared with legacy Aperio AT2 scans. We’ll also share strategies for optimizing lab workflows for digital pathology, offer practical tips for scanning, especially with difficult tissue types, and discuss the broader value of going digital.
