Abstract
A method for laser microdissection of a laser microdissection region of a prepared specimen includes driving a holder for the specimen into a holding position using a control device. First and second digital images are captured that depict a same portion of the prepared specimen, with the first image depicting the portion under at least one first microscopic examination method and the second image depicting the portion under at least a second microscopic examination method. A live overlay image is generated of the portion of the prepared image in a live mode. The live overlay is presented on a display area with the images overlaid onto one another. A marking is generated and captured on the live overlay image so as to define the laser microdissection region.
