"reaConverter handles straightforward SCN-to-TIFF/JPEG conversions efficiently, which is helpful for sharing slides with collaborators who don’t have Leica software. The interface is user-friendly, and I’ve had no issues with standard brightfield images."

"I regularly work with Leica SCN files in my pathology lab, and reaConverter has been a lifesaver when I need to convert them to TIFF or JPEG for collaboration. The batch processing feature saves me so much time, and the output quality remains excellent, no loss of detail even at high magnifications. The software is intuitive, and I appreciate that it preserves metadata during conversion. Highly recommended for digital pathology workflows!"

SCN to XBM Conversion: FAQ

What are SCN files?

The Leica SCN file format is a proprietary digital pathology image format used primarily by Leica Microsystems for storing high-resolution whole-slide images (WSI) generated by their slide scanners, such as those in the Leica Aperio series. These files are commonly used in histology, pathology, and biomedical research for viewing, analyzing, and sharing scanned tissue samples.

What are XBM files?

The XBM (X BitMap) format represents a monochrome image file usually used for storing cursor and icon bitmaps in the X graphical user interface.
