Aperio, a company has made a breakthrough on medical imaging criteria

The picture you’ll see below is actually a tissue of a breast cancer. The image can now be seen this clear, which is made possible by using a high-power oil immersion ScanScope slide-scanning system made by Aperio, their scanners can create very-high quality images in minutes which has broken into the record of the terrapixel barrier with a resolution of 1,095,630 x 939,495 with a file size of 143 GB (that’s more than my 2 HDD’s space combined ^_^’) .

With an image this big, the company decided to create a new format for the TIFF(Tagged Image File Format) image format exceeding the size limit of 4,000 MB, the new format will be called BigTIFF and is now offered to the public domain.
