Grundium’s first technology patent in China

Grundium has been issued a technology patent in China with the title “A Method, An Apparatus And A Computer Program Product For Focusing”. The patent is another part of Grundium’s portfolio of innovations in making the sharpest images in the digital slide scanning business.

April 2, 2021

The granted patent describes a novel focus depth model for sharp digital imaging of pathology slides. In this method, a focus stack of images taken from one or several points in a scanned specimen is used to estimate the best focus level of a point elsewhere on the slide. This method saves scanning time by reducing the number of images needed for sharp focusing.

A portable slide scanner available right where it’s needed is almost always faster than a central multi-slide scanner.
