AVENIO Millisect System

The AVENIO Millisect System is an automated, high-performance tissue dissection system that enables precise and consistent recovery of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue areas of interest for molecular pathology. The system is optimized to fit easily into a variety of clinical workflow configurations, improves diagnostic testing results by reducing false negatives, and can help you efficiently extract more clinically relevant information from every sample.

Digital annotation

• Allows definition of multiple Areas of Interest (AOIs) on a single slide, without limits on geometry
• Digitally-assisted alignment to reference slide for up to 4 serial slides
• Intuitive software interface to guide user annotations

Automated milling

• Faster process with fewer steps and no pre-staining
• Precise milling displaces tissue AOIs as small as 250 μm using a rotating action
• Automated consumable loading, filling and unloading

Gentle recovery

• Hands-free process minimizes potential for contamination
• Capillary action used to lift and recover AOIs after milling
• No risk of burning or losing sample with gentle, non-laser dissection

Comprehensive reporting

• Electronic report file, including images, annotations and notes, exportable as a PDF
• Pre-and post-dissection image capture
• Barcode scanning for improved traceability
