Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods and apparatuses for sectioning and imaging tissue or other samples, which are then automatically captured to enable subsequent analysis. The apparatus acts as a slice capture mechanism for serial sectioning microscopy in a fashion which enables subsequent interfacing with secondary microscopic interrogations or for processing with molecular diagnostic tools. The slices are spatially indexed to allow specific slices to be recalled from a library via automated handling techniques described herein.
