Abstract
A system for creating a contiguous digital image of a fluorescence microscope sample. In an embodiment, the system comprises a both a macro camera and a time delay integration (TDI) line scan camera. The system may also comprise a motorized stage, an illumination module, a light source, an excitation filter, an objective lens, an emission filter, and at least one processor configured to assemble a plurality of digital images of portions of the fluorescence microscope sample, generated by the TDI line scan camera, into a contiguous digital image of at least a portion of the fluorescence microscope sample.
