“Whoever can foresee or is already experiencing a shortage of pathologists should consider going digital.”

Digital pathology for remote diagnosis

Our PathoWin+ customer, Prim. Dr. Afschin Soleiman, managing director of the pathology department of the Tirol Kliniken, asked us for support in introducing digital pathology. He was looking for a solution to make cases from his pathology laboratory available to external pathologists for remote diagnosis. The whole thing had to work securely, quickly and cost-effectively.

Together with Philips, we developed the PathoWin+ Virtual Slides module, which interacts bidirectionally with the Philips IntelliSite IMS and allows the connection of multiple Philips Ultra Fast scanners.

Primar Dr. Soleiman’s conclusion: “Whoever can foresee or is already experiencing a shortage of pathologists should consider going digital.”
