Microscopes are a fundamental part of pathology workflows. Pathologists use microscopes to achieve efficient and reliable diagnoses, especially in histopathology, hematopathology, and medical microbiology. They often spend long hours looking through eyepieces and may experience physical discomfort from their working posture.
There are many options, vendors, and microscope models to consider when purchasing new clinical microscopes. The following sections include some suggestions to help buyers make the best decision, always bearing in mind that precision and time to diagnosis are the most crucial elements in pathology. After all, to benefit the patient, a diagnosis must be both accurate and timely.
Choosing clinical microscopes can be a complex task. The most important steps in the process are determining exactly how the microscopes will be used, which specimens will be analyzed, and the environment in which the microscopes will operate.
