Abstract: The present invention relates to digital pathology. In order to provide an improved handling of probes in digital pathology, a slide-holder (10) for digital pathology is provided that comprises a tray basis (12), a plurality of mounting means (14) and a plurality of slide-holder registration points (16). The tray basis is configured to carry a plurality of slides (20) to be imaged by a digital pathology system, for which the tray basis provides a plurality of slide-receiving positions. The plurality of mounting means are arranged on the tray basis to mount the plurality of slides on the tray basis in a plurality of slide-receiving positions to image each slide in a separate imaging position. The slide-holder registration points comprise a plurality of interacting portions (22) that provide a mechanical registration of the tray basis with a digital pathology system for each of the imaging positions.

Abstract: A shallow container for culturing organisms includes a holder defining a cavity and a separate lid to close off the cavity. The lid includes a transparent window portion to be arranged above the cavity when the lid closes off the cavity. The window portion includes an upper surface and a lower surface extending parallel to each other; where the cavity is filled with a matrix having a reflective top surface on which an organism to be cultured can be received, and where in at least one position of the lid with respect to the holder, in which the lid closes off the cavity, the top surface of the matrix extends non-parallel to the upper and lower surfaces of the window portion.

Abstract: The invention comprises a measurement device for lung function measurement comprising a flow tube forming an air-flow path, an actuator for closing and opening the flow tube and at least one sensor for measuring at least one lung function variable, wherein the actuator is arranged to force the flow tube to close the air-flow path by pressing the tube against a wall of the flow tube.
