Abstract
A digital slide scanning apparatus slide stage is configured to hold 1×3 and 2×3 glass slides. The slide stage is configured to alter its position by lateral shift or rotation to present the 1×3 or 2×3 sized recess to a slide rack for loading of the slide onto the stage. Also, a removable insert may configure the stage to hold a 1×3 glass slide when present and to hold a 2×3 glass slide when removed. Alternatively, a gripper stage is described herein that includes a fixed arm and a movable arm, each with one or more contact points configured to engage a side surface of the glass slide. Once the glass slide is secured between the contact points of the movable arm and the contact points of the fixed arm, the slide is further processed for scanning.
