Our VA hospital is considering purchase of a new image analysis system. Is anyone using (or heard of) the Optimus Image Analysis system? Has anyone used the DNA ploidy package? How does it compare to other ploidy packages in terms of ease of use, utility, format for reporting etc. in a clinical environment? What about the immunochemistry package...can you use any probe you wish or is it specific to certain biomarkers....and what about the chromagen---is this the user's choice? Is the technical support adequate? How reliable is the instrument? How quickly are repairs made in the event of failure? (You know the regular questions one would have when considering purchase of an instrument.) Does the instrument require programming by the user in order to perform tasks? If yes is this difficult for non-programmers? Is anyone using this system for fluorescence assays? Candid opinions concerning the usefulness, value, se rvice, and user support are greatly appreciated. Any information you may have would be helpful. Thank you. Becky-Bonner@uokhsc.edu
