Enable whole slide tissue analysis for Research and Clinical Applications


High-plex imaging across an entire slide, in a single scan, enables spatial analysis through examining biomarker expression, cell classification, and subcellular localization. Such analysis paves a path for advancing studies in pathology, immuno-oncology, infectious disease, and many more areas of disease.

21-plex imaging of lung carcinoma with the Orion Instrument

A single lung section was stained with Orion Reagents and imaged using the Orion instrument. All biomarkers were stained in a single round and imaged in a single scan. Three regions of interest (ROIs) are shown below that highlight the channels. Additional single channel images are shown in grayscale for clarity.
