[ome-users] MetaSystems vsi file

[LIM Soon Yew John (IMB)]

Dear All,

I had encounter a problem opening the .vsi image from MetaSystems attached in the link below:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/kwmca936x3nvi5j/SS1-Case-33.Ki67_M~B.vsi

When I try to open the .vsi format slide scanning data from MetaSystems using Bio-format Importer in Fiji, I got the following error message below:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Invalid series: 0

Can I used Bio-format Importer to open MetaSystems .vsi file?

Best Regards and Thank You,
