New Software Enables Comprehensive Digital Pathology Scanning and Analysis

Leica Microsystems and Visiopharm, a leading provider of Histoinformatics Solutions for Life-Sciences, today announce the completed integration of Leica’s SlidePath Digital Image Hub with Visiopharm’s Whole-Slide InformaticsTM solutions for Digital Pathology.

Users can now take advantage of superior image capture and management from Leica Microsystems and excellent Whole Slide image analysis and Whole Slide Stereology from Visiopharm in a single system.

This integration provides a truly streamlined workflow for customers using image analysis and stereology in digital pathology. All images stored on the Digital Image Hub server can be browsed and accessed via the Visiopharm software. Selected images are then easily opened and analyzed by either Visiopharm’s image analysis software or stereology software. Following analysis, users can quickly view the resulting data and associated slides through the Visiopharm software interface.

Leica’s Digital Image Hub, developed by SlidePath, is a scalable enterprise-level solution for the management and archiving of digital slides and associated data. As Digital Image Hub is accessed via a standard internet browser and supports images from a variety of digital slide scanners, it is the perfect partner for Visiopharm’s whole slide analysis solutions.
