However, it is in the past decade that pathology has begun to undergo a true digital transformation, moving away from analog into an electronic environment. The concept of telepathology - transmitting microscope images between remote locations - has been around for nearly 50 years. The history of digital pathology goes back over 100 years, when specialized equipment was first used to capture images from a microscope onto photographic plates. Automated image analysis tools can also be applied to assist in the interpretation and quantification of biomarker expression within tissue sections. Digital slides can be shared over networks using specialized digital pathology software applications. Some of the storage platform’s features include its ability to manage storage at an object level and enable data routing for complex data workflows, including pre- and post-fetching and content-based routing.Utilizing high-throughput, automated digital pathology scanners, it is possible to capture an entire glass slide, under bright field or fluorescent conditions, at a magnification comparable to a microscope. Specialty-specific structuring of pathology studiesĪcuo, Hyland’s VNA image management solutionĪcuo can manage larger data sets at higher speeds than traditional image archive systems - a must for pathology images that are often several times larger than typical radiology studies.Force horizontal or vertical image panning.NilRead for Digital Pathology offers a viewer experience with: The viewer is built on the open standard, DICOM for pathology, and can integrate with laboratory information systems (LMS, LIMS) and pathology quantitative solutions. NilRead for Digital Pathology is a zero-footprint viewer that supports the natural workflow and tray metaphor to which pathologists are accustomed. It also enables pathologists to work remotely on any device. It provides users with the ability to view, collaborate, teach and obtain second opinions from any high-resolution workstation. NilRead for Digital Pathology is a feature-rich, diagnostic enterprise viewer with a class-leading, pathology-rendering engine for high-resolution imaging.
