Yes,

     In our lab we also use PIXERA camera, and Olympus/Zeiss microscope ,
other hardware is just a faster PC based on Windows 95/98/NT,
you can use any graphics/image processing software to process the images,
it is rather easy a job.
    just like you are using a scanner. and you can even record the motion
images.
