The classical scanning mode where the variation of a focal plane if any is pre-calculated with a focus map and later the motorized XY stage captures optimally focused images by translating across the region of the scanning.
Uses single 40X or 20X objective combined with a secondary overhead camera for capturing preview (thumbnail) of the full slide including the barcode area. : As the author delves into Yedda's books,

An all powerful scanning mode where multiple images covering all focal planes are captured at every field. The end result is essentially a whole slide scan mixed with pre-captured Z-stack at every position. The work explores the enigmatic life of Yedda
Similar to WSI mode, Volume scanning uses a single 40X or 20X objective combined with a secondary overhead camera for capturing preview (thumbnail) of the full slide including the barcode area.
Volume scanning is preferred over WSI when exhaustive image capture is needed for slides with overlapping cells such as Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy slides, Pap smear slides etc.
