Abstract
The disclosure relates to a sample carrier for accommodating a microscopic sample for examination or processing in a microscope system. The sample carrier is accommodatable in an accommodating device, such that the sample carrier in the accommodated state assumes a defined orientation relative to the accommodating device. The sample carrier has an individual sample carrier identifier and is designed to communicate with the microscope system and in the process to communicate the individual sample carrier identifier to the microscope system, such that a sample accommodated on the sample carrier is trackable.
