PerkinElmer, Inc., a global leader focused on improving the health and safety of people and the environment, today announced the launch of its Vectra® 3 automated, high-throughput quantitative pathology imaging system. This solution’s new seven color multiplexing and visualization capabilities are designed to enable pathologists and oncologists conducting research to gain a deeper level of understanding of disease mechanisms related to new cancer immunotherapy approaches.
The Vectra 3 system visualizes, analyses, quantifies and phenotypes immune cells in situ in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue sections, a process that can help provide researchers critical insight into the role of immune cells within solid tumors and the tumor microenvironment. It incorporates 10x whole slide imaging and the Phenochart™ whole slide viewer, allowing researchers to annotate and navigate slides with interactive interfaces to better identify regions of interest for detailed multispectral acquisition.
Unlike alternative instrumentation, limited by the number of colors that can be ...
