Award List:

Miniaturized objective-lens array for slide scanner

Award Year / Program / Phase: 2003 / SBIR / Phase I
Agency: HHS
Principal Investigator: Artur Olszak
Award Amount: $106,952.00
Abstract:
DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): We propose development of innovative optics for a slide scanner to generate virtual slides in histopathology. These optics will allow scanning a microscope slide in a single sweep at a numerical aperture of NA = 0.65, covering the entire width and length of a… More

Array microscope image-acquisition system

Award Year / Program / Phase: 2003 / SBIR / Phase I
Agency: HHS
Principal Investigator: Pixuan Zhou
Award Amount: $107,039.00
Abstract:
DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): DMetrix is developing an innovative array-microscope slide scanner to generate virtual slides in histopathology. The innovation consists of the use of an array of miniaturized objectives, each measuring approximately 2 mm in diameter and 10 mm in length,… More

Array-microscope slide scanner system

Award Year / Program / Phase: 2005 / SBIR / Phase II
Agency: HHS
Principal Investigator: Artur G. Olszak
Award Amount: $635,252.00
Abstract:
DESCRIPTION (PROVIDED BY APPLICANT): We propose the development of an innovative, economical, array-microscope digital slide scanner to generate virtual slides in histopathology. This instrument will be capable of scanning a microscope slide in a single sweep at a numerical aperture of NA = 0.65,… More

Array microscope image-acquistion system

Award Year / Program / Phase: 2005 / SBIR / Phase II
Agency: HHS
Principal Investigator: Pixuan Zhou
Award Amount: $811,565.00
Abstract:
DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): DMetrix is developing an innovative array-microscope technology to generate virtual slides in histopathology and cytology. The innovation consists of the use of an array of miniaturized objectives, each measuring approximately 2 mm in diameter and 10 mm in… More

Array-microscope Multispectral Whole Slide Imager

Award Year / Program / Phase: 2006 / SBIR / Phase I
Agency: HHS
Principal Investigator: Chen Liang
Award Amount: $106,002.00
Abstract:
DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): We propose to develop an innovative "many-to-one" optical system for a whole-slide multispectral slide scanner to rapidly generate virtual slides in pathology. A primary use of this optical system is to enable multispectral imaging of tissue and tissue-microarray… More

Epi-fluorescence array microscope

Award Year / Program / Phase: 2006 / SBIR / Phase I
Agency: HHS
Principal Investigator: Chen Liang
Award Amount: $107,904.00
Abstract:
DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): DMetrix is developing a line of innovative array-microscope slide scanner instruments to generate virtual slides. Our core technology is an array of miniature objectives, each measuring less than 2 mm in diameter and 7 mm in length, slightly staggered in the… More

Liquid Lens Array Microscope

Award Year / Program / Phase: 2007 / SBIR / Phase I
Agency: HHS
Principal Investigator: Artur G. Olszak
Award Amount: $105,738.00
Abstract:
DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): We propose to develop a next-generation, highly flexible optical system for use in a whole- slide scanner to rapidly generate virtual slides in pathology and cytology. The primary use of this optical system is to enable ultra-rapid and accurate imaging of… More

Whole-brain fluorescence and brightfield imaging at single-cell level

Award Year / Program / Phase: 2010 / SBIR / Phase I
Agency: HHS
Principal Investigator: Lloyd J. Lacomb
Award Amount: $977,235.00
Abstract:
DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The goal of this project is to develop an open and flexible imaging platform capable of rapid, 0.5- 5 m pixel resolution image capture of large-area histology sections (up to 125 mm by 175 mm), in brightfield and by ep i-fluorescence optical sectioning. The… More
