Digital Pathology FAQs

What is digital pathology?

Pathology involves the examination of tissue samples for diagnosis or forensics. This process involves staining the tissue and then examining it under a microscope. In digital pathology, the glass slide is converted into a digital pathology slide for analysis, sharing, and storage.

How does a digital pathology slide scanner work?

Glass slides are loaded into the scanner. At the push of a button, the scanner rapidly captures high-resolution images of each pathology slide. The digitized slides enable pathologists to view and analyze them on a screen rather than looking through a microscope’s oculars.

What are the benefits of digital pathology?

The advantages of digital pathology include a more efficient workflow, enhanced image quality, easy sharing for consultation, and  simplified slide storage and retrieval.

Can digital pathology be integrated into existing lab workflows?

Yes, our digital pathology slide scanner is designed for easy integration into existing pathology workflows as well as existing lab information systems (LIS).

Is your digital pathology scanner an approved medical device?

Our digital pathology slide scanner is sold as a medical device in Europe, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand, India, Japan, and South Korea.
