LEYTAS: a system for the processing of microscopic images. 1980

J Vrolijk, and P L Pearson, and J S Ploem

The Leyden Television Analysis System, LETYAS, consists of a number of hardwired modules for the processing of images at television speed. Incorporating a high degree of flexibility, LEYTAS is well suited to various fields of biomedical research. This paper described the hardware configuration of the system and the software program, TAL, which has been developed to allow a flexible and interactive control of all the hardwired options. Some examples are given to illustrate the possibilities of LEYTAS.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D008677	Metaphase	The phase of cell nucleus division following PROMETAPHASE, in which the CHROMOSOMES line up across the equatorial plane of the SPINDLE APPARATUS prior to separation.
D008853	Microscopy	The use of instrumentation and techniques for visualizing material and details that cannot be seen by the unaided eye. It is usually done by enlarging images, transmitted by light or electron beams, with optical or magnetic lenses that magnify the entire image field. With scanning microscopy, images are generated by collecting output from the specimen in a point-by-point fashion, on a magnified scale, as it is scanned by a narrow beam of light or electrons, a laser, a conductive probe, or a topographical probe.

D008905	Minicomputers	Small computers that lack the speed, memory capacity, and instructional capability of the full-size computer but usually retain its programmable flexibility. They are larger, faster, and more flexible, powerful, and expensive than microcomputers.	Minicomputer
