Abstract

A system of digitalizing a slide, comprising at least one imaging device and a computing device communicatively connected to the imaging device, wherein the computing device is configured to scan each slide of a plurality of slides at the imaging device to generate an initial slide image and associated scanning metadata for each slide, determine a quality control metric for each slide as a function of the initial slide image and the associated scanning metadata, wherein determining the quality control metric includes flagging the slide based on the determined quality control metric, generate at least one scanning profile as a function of the scanning metadata based on the quality control metric, and re-scan the flagged slides at the imaging device using the at least one scanning profile.
