BioVantra is an early adopter of digital pathology.
Digital pathology is the process of digitizing glass slides using a whole slide image scanner and then analyzing the digital images using an image viewer, typically on a computer monitor or mobile device. The rapid progress of whole slide imaging (WSI) technology, along with advances in software applications, LIS / LIMS interfacing, and high-speed networking, have made it possible to integrate digital pathology into pathology workflows fully.
Laboratories can utilize high-throughput, automated digital pathology scanners to capture an entire glass slide, under bright field or fluorescent conditions, at a magnification comparable to a microscope. In addition, digital slides can be shared over networks using specialized digital pathology software applications. Pathologists can also apply automated image analysis tools to interpret and quantify biomarker expression within tissue sections.
