Photodyne
Technologies
manufactures top of
the line computerized macro photography systems for grossing, pathology,
histology and other scientific applications, using high resolution digital
cameras. Various models are available, and the company specializes in custom
designs, usually at no extra charge. These state of the
art macroscopic (gross) imaging units revolutionize the picture taking
process in the laboratory. The systems enable even non-photographers to take

systems are used by hundreds of leading hospitals, universities,
medical examiner offices and research institutes worldwide. The
included proprietary software allows one to take pictures directly from
the computer. All attributes of the camera are controllable from the
computer as well, and the image is viewable in real time on the screen,
allowing adjustments before the picture is taken. The picture is then
transferred directly to the computer and is stored on the computer’s hard drive
for editing, archiving, or email as an attachment like any other image
file via the internet. Visit us online at www.photodyne.com
