In medicine, pathologists play an extremely important role in confirming observation. They are often making observations with a microscope for long periods of time and the physical and mental burden of this is heavy. Aiming to reduce such stress issues for pathologists, Nikon has developed a new microscope for pathological examination, the ECLIPSE Ui, which allows pathologists to view high-resolution images of specimens on a monitor, rather than looking through eyepieces. Here, Dr. Takeshi Sasaki of the University of Tokyo Hospital, who has evaluated this microscope, talks about his impressions of it.

*Dr. Sasaki has provided feedback to Nikon on this microscope’s features and clinical usefulness based on his own personal experience.

Thanks to its high image quality, user-friendliness, quickness and efficiency, it is highly expected to improve the workflow of pathological examination. ECLIPSE Ui brings together Nikon's passions and missions as a "healthcare company" to open up a new category of medical devices. The researchers and developers will talk about their challenges, ideas, and visions.
