Zusammenfassung:A wafer for carrying a biological sample, the wafer comprising: a pair of circular discs, wherein at least one of the discs is transparent; and a gap between the discs adapted to receive a biological sample. The compact circular shape of the wafer makes it particularly suited for use in a portable device in which the wafer is rotated to enable a camera to image different areas of the sample between the discs. The gap may be sized to pull a biological sample into the gap by capillary action.
