Abstract

Systems and methods for acquiring laser capture microdissection samples are disclosed. A scattering media is located within a beam path defined by the laser capture microdissection microscope and the sample is imaged through the scattering media. A transfer film carrier includes a substrate surface and a laser capture microdissection transfer film coupled to the substrate surface of the transfer film carrier. The scattering media is optically coupled to a laser capture microdissection transfer film being located in or attached to the laser capture microdissection transfer film or transfer film carrier. The systems and methods provide improved sample imaging and facilitate quick and accurate laser capture microdissection while simultaneously minimizing contamination.
