Abstract

An instrument and a method of scanning a large microscope specimen moves the specimen relative to a detector array during scanning by a scanner. Magnification of the instrument is adjustable using a zoom tube lens over a continuous range of magnification to enable scans of the specimen to be taken over a range of resolutions without varying the infinity corrective objective. Scans of the specimen can be taken over a range of resolutions with the same infinity connected objective.
