SECTION 6 Calibration Standards, Specimens, & Aids
Datacolor ChromaCal™ Color Calibration System for Optical Microscopy
A Calibration Standard for Brightfield Images
The Datacolor ChromaCal™ system is an innovative new solution that enables researchers, scientists and technicians to establish and preserve the color integrity of their digital transmitted, brightfield microscopy images.
Datacolor ChromaCal™ integrates three components to establish a color profile for the microscopy system:
Together, the Datacolor ChromaCal™ system establishes a color profile for the microscopy system and applies that profile to your specimen images to ensure consistent and reliable color representation. The outcome is improved comparability of images and enhanced communication and collaboration for better decision making.
Key Features
Standardizes color reproduction in digital brightfield images Delivers consistent, reliable basis for evaluation, communication, quan- tification, documentation and publication
Performs image and monitor calibration for consistency throughout the imaging process
Compatible with most microscopes, scientific cameras and acquisition software

Before CHROMACAL
Datacolor ChromaCal™ easily integrates into your microscopy workflow. Simply acquire your specimen images and an image of the calibration
slide. Launch the Datacolor ChromaCal™ software, select the calibration image and apply the calibration to any or all of your specimen images. All original images are preserved, and "ChromaCal-ibrated" images are saved separately.
