HALO® Module

TMA (Tissue Microarray) Add-On

The TMA add-on provides a productivity-enhancing workflow for tissue microarray analysis by enabling automated, high-throughput, segmentation and batch analysis of whole slide TMA images.  The add-on can be used in conjunction with any of our cell-based analysis modules for brightfield or fluorescence, as well as our tissue classifier add-on for automated tumor detection.  In combination, these tools allow the user to automatically identify tumor, and quantify cell-based IHC, ISH, or Immunofluorescence assays within just the relevant tumor regions; eliminating the need for manual exclusion of non-tumor regions.

File formats supported by the HALO image analysis platform:

  • Non-proprietary (JPG, TIF, OME.TIFF)
  • Nikon (ND2)
  • 3D Histech (MRXS)
  • Akoya (QPTIFF, component TIFF)
