The VS800 system is an automated digital slide creation, management, and viewing system. It is intended for in vitro diagnostic use as an aid to the pathologist in the display, detection, counting and classification of tissues and cells of clinical interest based on particular color, intensity, size, pattern and shape. The VS800HER2 Manual Read (MR) of digital slide application is intended for use as an aid to the pathologist in the detection and semi-quantitative measurement of HER2 by manual examination of the digital slide of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded and neoplastic tissue IHC stained for HER2 receptors on a computer monitor. HER2 results are indicated for use as an aid in the management, prognosis and prediction of therapy outcomes of breast cancer. The VS800HER2 MR of digital slide application is intended for use as an accessory to the DakoHercepTest to aid the pathologist in the detection and semi-quantitative measurement of HER2 by manual examination of the digital slide of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded and neoplastic tissue immunohistochemically stained for HER2 receptors on a computer monitor. When used with the Dako Hercep Test, it is indicated for use as an aid in the assessment of breast cancer patients for whom HERCEPTIN® (Trastuzumab) treatment is being considered. Note: The actual correlation of the Dako Hercep Test to the Herceptin® clinical outcome has not been established.

The VS800 System is an automated digital slide creation, management and viewing system. The VS800 System components consist of an automated digital microscope slide scanner (VS800-SS) which include a computer, keyboard and mouse, operating monitor (VS800-MTR) and VS Viewer software (VS2-ASW-IDB). The system capabilities include digitizing microscope slides at high resolution, storing and managing the resulting digital slide images, retrieving and displaying digital slides, including support for remote access over wide-area networks, providing facilities for annotating digital slides and editing metadata associated with digital slides, and facilities for image analysis of digital slides. The remote digital slide viewing capabilities of the system support reading digital slides on a computer monitor, enabling Pathologists to make clinically relevant decisions analogous to those they make using a conventional microscope. Specifically, the system supports the pathologist in the detection of HER2/neu by manual examination of the digital slide of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded normal and neoplastic tissue immunohistochemically stained for HER2 receptors on a computer monitor. The VS800-SS (an automated digital microscope slide scanner) creates high resolution, color digital slide images of entire glass slides in a matter of minutes. High numeric aperture 20x objectives, specially designed for VS800-SS optical system and real time contrast auto focus system (AF) are used to produce high-quality images. VS800-SS employs a 2D CCD imager for fine image acquisition which is same technologies used in conventional microscope imaging system. VS800-SS captured image is as same as conventional microscope image. The VS-ASW-IDB (VS Viewer software) is a full-featured digital pathology information management system. The software runs on a server computer, which stores digital slide images on disk storage such as a RAID array, and which hosts an SQL database that contains digital slide metadata. The VS-ASW-IDB includes a web application and services which encapsulate database and digital slide image access for other computers. The VS-ASW-IDB also includes support for locally or remotely connected Image Server, which run digital slide viewing software provided as part of VS-ASW-IDB. The laboratory technician or operator of VS800-SS loads glass microscope slides into a specially designed slide carrier with a capacity up to 100 slides per carrier (300 total). The scanning process begins when the operator starts the VS800-SS scanner and finishes when the scanner has completed scanning of all loaded slides. As each glass slide is processed, the system automatically stores stitched images as a single digital slide image, which represents a histological reconstruction of the entire tissue section. When the slide scanning finished, then operator of scanner will confirms the image quality and records to the database. When the images are recorded, pathologists or authorized parsons can observe these images to access the VS-ASW-IDB.

System reagent for the quantitative determination of IgM immunoglobulins in human serum and plasma on OLYMPUS analyzers. For in vitro diagnostic use.

In this Olympus procedure: - When a sample is mixed with R1 buffer and R2 antiserum solution, human IgM reacts specifically with anti-human IgM antibodies to yield insoluble aggregates. - Immune complexes formed in solution scatter light in proportion to their size, shape and concentration. - Turbidimeters measure the reduction of incidence light due to reflection, absorption or scatter. - In the Olympus procedure, the decrease in intensity of light transmitted (increase in absorbance) through particles suspended in solution is as a result of complexes formed during the antigen-antibody reaction.

System reagent for the quantitative determination of IgG immunoglobulins in human serum, plasma and cerebrospinal fluid on OLYMPUS analyzers. The measurement of IgG aids in the diagnosis of abnormal protein metabolism and the body's lack of ability to resist infectious agents. For in vitro diagnostic use.

System reagent for the quantitative determination of C-Reactive Protein in human serum on OLYMPUS Analyzers. Measurement of CRP is useful for the detection and evaluation of infection, tissue injury, inflammatory disorders and associated diseases. Measurements may also be used as an aid in the identification of individuals at risk for future cardiovascular disease. High sensitivity CRP (hsCRP) measurements, when used in conjunction with traditional clinical laboratory evaluation of acute coronary syndromes, may be useful as an independent marker of prognosis for recurrent events, in patients with stable coronary disease or acute coronary syndromes.
