Metafer combines automation, precision, and scalability for modern labs. It controls microscope features like contrasting modes, objectives, and filters, while intelligent auto-focusing ensures sharp images without manual adjustments. Scalable and flexible, Metafer supports the SlideFeeder x80 for up to 800 slides, an automatic oil dispenser for smooth magnification changes, and a barcode reader for efficient high-throughput scanning.

For over 30 years, Ikaros has defined the standard for modern workflows in cytogenetics. Now, with version 7, the proven software takes a major leap forward - featuring a fully redesigned interface and the integration of artificial intelligence driven by Deep Neural Networks (DNNs). These enhancements deliver a secure workflow that
streamlines the verification of automated result suggestions, pushing precision and innovation to new heights.

Chromosome analysis serves as a cornerstone in cytogenetics. And Ikaros has long provided a suite of algorithms aimed at facilitating the workflow and to reduce the number of interactions. Yet, despite these advancements, creating a karyogram remained to be a time-intensive task. Recent progress in deep learning has greatly improved the choices available, offering a more efficient approach.

Neon is a versatile solution designed for the seamless and reliable management of image and case data. Built to gather information from multiple sources, it organizes everything into a streamlined workflow for maximum efficiency. Fully integrated across all MetaSystems installations, Neon ensures that essential data is always accessible, whenever and wherever it’s needed.

MetaSystems and ADS Biotec have combined their expertise to deliver a fully integrated workflow for chromosome assessment. By linking ADS Biotec’s automated Harvesters, Spreaders, and Stainer with MetaSystems’ DNN-powered Metafer imaging platform and Ikaros karyotyping software, laboratories can standardize and accelerate the major steps of the cytogenetic process, creating an efficient and highly reproducible solution for modern cytogenetic laboratories.
