1. A system for use in detecting biological material of a biological sample, the system comprising: a positioning apparatus for providing a biological sample in a sampling position, wherein the biological sample comprises biological material associated with a biological material holding structure, the biological material holding structure having first and second opposing sides; an electronic light detector array, wherein the electronic light detector array comprises a plurality of detector pixels located at particular detector pixel addresses, and further wherein the plurality of detector pixels faces the first side of the biological sample to receive light therefrom; and a light source operable to provide source light, wherein the sampling position is a position that places the biological sample in a defined spatial relationship relative to the electronic light detector array such that the source light impinges on at least one portion of the first side of the biological material holding structure of the biological sample, and further such that, in response to such impinging light, light representative of the biological sample is provided via a light path for detection by one or more of the detector pixels; and control circuitry operable to acquire at least one frame of image data representative of biological material of the biological sample using the plurality of detector pixels to detect the light representative of the biological sample provided via the light path.
