Pathology imaging

Digital pathology. The real MVP.

Going digital increase productivity and efficiency, giving you more time to focus on the diagnosis. You also get reduced report turn-around time and closer collaboration between disciplines. That’s why digital pathology is the most valuable player.

Changing the world of pathology

Integrated diagnostics is part of our DNA. Within our solution you get access to the complete patient history and the digital wonder of seamless efficiency and interactivity. Through our premier diagnostic application, Sectra IDS7, we have transformed the practice of pathology. The best part? You can access it from literally anywhere without compromising security or performance.

With one system, common tools, and one interface, bringing more data to physicians’ fingertips, comes more data-rich decisions.

Celebrating a decade of digital pathology

For you, we’ve recorded five new episodes in a podcast mini-series to celebrate a decade of digital pathology. Our host and guests will take you on a journey — from the early days with pioneers, through to our most recent implementations, and even a look into the future of digital pathology.

Brilliant workflows. Made for you.

One platform Reduces IT burden, unites images and information, and lower TCO
One app The worst thing besides sitting down, is have to move between workstations
One viewer Need say no more, one viewer brings all images to the same display

All the possibilities

With a complete solution, you gain access to everything you need with a single login. And our software is created to be used on any hardware, for your convenience. Simply put, it is designed to reduce variation and improve precision, boosting the efficiency and quality of the diagnostic review.

  • Easy case navigation and image review
  • Cross-enterprise collaboration for shared expertise
  • Diagnostic tools and navigation at your fingertips

All the images

Of course, support for DICOM is given. As are whole slide images, images to radiology and gross photography. Because usability is key, we always push for standardized protocols to ensure you’ve got everything you need to do an excellent job.

  • Unifies all data for a complete patient overview
  • Supporting both DICOM and whole-slide images (WSI) from commonly used scanners
  • Fast and cost-effective storage technology

All the proof

Digital pathology offers high usability and consistent efficiency in primary diagnostics across the world. Our success is proof of how important it is to offer simple solutions for complex situations.

  • 100+ simultaneous users in one clinical environment
  • 50+ pathology AI vendors integrated with Sectra
  • 3+ million reviews pathology images each month

Primary diagnostic review

More time to focus on the diagnosis

Digital pathology increases both the efficiency and quality of the diagnostic review. While the computer takes care of time-consuming tasks, you can focus on what is most important—setting the diagnosis.

Digitization also enables the use of image analysis and artificial intelligence which, in turn, reduces variation and improves the precision of tasks such as cell counting and cancer grading. This brings further benefits, such as boosting the efficiency and quality of the diagnostic review.

Diagnostics anytime and anywhere

Work remote with full access

Without having to rely on physical glass slides, it is easier for pathologists to work remote, for instance from home when needed. Glass slides can be broken or lost when moved whereas the digital image is always available and always in full quality. And by logging in via a secure connection to the central server, it is possible to perform the diagnostic work from anywhere.

Share and collaborate

Work together for better review quality and patient outcomes

Digital images enable easy remote access and collaboration, regardless of where the participants are. Depending on the access rules you define, pathologists or researchers access images from anywhere and at any time, helping them improve the review quality and patient outcomes.

Integrated diagnostic workflows

Combining forces to improve patient outcomes

Digital pathology enables integrated diagnostics—a flow of information across departmental borders for better collaboration and clinical decisions. Access to all information in a single application also saves time for the reviewer, who can access all relevant images and patient information for a case at once.

Tumor board meetings

Always have the right images and information close at hand

Pathology plays a key role in multidisciplinary team meetings—or tumor boards—where medical staff from different specialties meet to discuss complex cases pre and post treatment. With instant access to digital pathology images, side by side with radiology or other images, you can have more efficient discussions and are better able to give detailed descriptions of findings. Digital images are also easily available if unplanned cases are added to the discussion during the actual meeting.

Telepathology

Second opinions and external reading resources

One of the key benefits of digitizing pathology is the ability to share digital images, rather than send physical slides. This helps you reduce treatment errors, logistics, and administration, resulting in potential savings. Access to specialists for efficient external readings and second opinions can also shorten waiting times for patients—helping you meet patient demand and regulatory enforcements.

Research and education

Efficiency and high quality—as standard

With digital images, you can initiate education and research more efficiently—and already during the review. Give images digital tags for easy follow-up, and outline regions of interest with proper naming for easy identification.

Education based on physical glass slides is unequal as not everyone has the same access to good material. However, digital images ensure high-quality cases for everyone.

Get access to images on any platform, including tablets, making it easy for students to reach their training material.
