1.2. Designated use
The purpose of MacroVIEW and its optional parts is to capture and store digital images, audio comments
and short videos of the whole body, body parts and organs examined at autopsy, grossing room and forensic
pathology.
The system has been designed for laboratory use and can therefore withstand the harshest laboratory
conditions. The instrument is intended for laboratory use (indoor use) only.
MacroVIEW is a system that must be operated by trained personnel, such as: laboratory technicians and
pathologists.
Read this manual carefully before using MacroVIEW.
A camera is installed on the unit with MacroVIEW software, which is designed to capture images of the
whole body and to have a complete, safe and reliable manipulation of them.
MacroVIEW measurement function is strictly linked to the calibration performed by the
operator and is not controlled by the unit's software. This is why the measurements
obtained with MacroVIEW CANNOT be taken into account for diagnostic purposes. These
values are purely indicative.
In fact, it is necessary to position a ruler near the sample (see picture below) or use a gauge to get
a diagnostic value.
Every picture taken by the manipulator must be calibrated, as described in chapter 3.7.2.

When the instrument is in its final position, the trolley can be blocked by using the wheel brakes.
When the manipulator arm is fully extended and the trolley wheel brakes are engaged,
avoid sudden movements of the manipulator to prevent tipping over.
Never pull the equipment. Move it by pushing it only from the two side handles. The
following picture shows the left handle, there is another handle on the right side.
The camera can be blocked with the hooks on the left side of the stands when the system is moved.
