The Islet Counter is used to generate cell counts of sample quantities of isolated pancreatic islets. The ICC system enables the user to reliably and repeatedly quantify the islet equivalent (IEQ) in less than a minute. Islet quantification is based on the Clinical Islet Transplantation Consortium (CIT) protocol.
The software yields the number of particles (IPN), the IEQ, and also sorts cells by size groups according to cell area.
In addition, the user obtains: the area covered, the B-factor, a size group IEQ contribution pie chart, and distribution statistics such as a size group histogram. Also, an Excel® report can be generated with the push of a button. The software allows image archiving for documentation, training, and verification purposes.
