Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	An instrument for generating a tissue microarray includes a coring tool for coring and removing a sample core from the tissue sample contained in the donor block. An image capture device for capturing a histologic image of a fixed section of tissue sample, corresponding to the tissue sample contained in the donor block, from a sample slide is further provided. A processor is coupled to the image capture device and can receive the histologic image of the fixed section of tissue sample from the image capture device. A display is coupled to the processor for displaying the histologic image. A user interface is coupled to the control system to allow a user to select from the displayed histological image a location for coring and removing a sample core.
