Pathology imaging

Digital pathology. The real MVP.

Going digital boosts productivity and streamlines workflows, freeing up time to focus on the diagnosis. It shortens report turnaround times and enables closer collaboration across 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

Join us over the course of five episodes as we celebrate our journey in digital pathology. In this podcast mini-series, we’ll take a walk down memory lane to discuss the early days, highlight our latest implementations, and take a peek 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

Letting primary diagnostic review matters most

Sectra IDS7, with its advanced diagnostic tools for pathology, enhances both the efficiency and quality of the diagnostic review. While the software handles time-consuming tasks, you can focus on what matters most—making the diagnosis.

  • Integrated worklists, reporting, and image review in a single application
  • Access to image analysis tools for tasks such as cell counting
  • AI-assisted workflows for cancer grading
Working remote with diagnostics

Remote diagnostics without compromise

By eliminating the need for physical glass slides, digital pathology makes it easier for pathologists to work remotely—whether from home or another location. Unlike glass slides, digital images can’t be lost or damaged in transit and are always available in full quality. With secure access to the central server, diagnostic work can be performed from virtually anywhere.

  • No need to transport or handle fragile glass slides
  • Consistent, high-quality images always accessible
  • Secure remote login for full diagnostic capabilities
Share and collaborate

Enabling collaboration across enterprises

Digital whole-slide images and macro photos make collaboration seamless, regardless of participant location. With flexible access rules, pathologists and researchers can securely view cases anytime, anywhere—supporting improved review quality and, hopefully, leading the way to better patient outcomes.

  • Remote access to images for seamless collaboration
  • Customizable access levels for teams and individuals
  • Enhanced diagnostic review through shared expertise
Integrated diagnostics

Combining disciplines for more precise decisions

Digital pathology enables integrated diagnostics—a seamless flow of information across departmental borders to support better collaboration and more informed clinical decisions. With all relevant images, genomic data, and patient information accessible in a single application, reviewers save time and gain a more complete view of each case, advancing healthcare toward personalized treatments with greater precision.

  • Integrated access to radiology, pathology, genomics, and other data sources

  • All case information in one place for faster, more informed review

  • Cross-disciplinary collaboration to support precision medicine

Tumor board meetings

Having the right images and information close at hand

Pathology is essential in multidisciplinary team meetings—or tumor boards—where specialists collaborate on complex cases before and after treatment. Instant access to digital pathology images, alongside radiology and other scans, enables more efficient discussions and detailed descriptions of findings. Digital images are also readily available if unplanned cases arise during the meeting.

  • Side-by-side access to pathology, radiology, and other imaging
  • Efficient, detailed case discussions in tumor boards
  • Quick availability of images for unplanned case reviews
Telepathology

Enabling second opinions and external reading resources

Digitizing pathology allows you to share digital images instead of physical slides, reducing treatment errors, logistics challenges, and administrative burden—leading to potential cost savings. Easy access to specialists for external readings and second opinions also helps shorten patient waiting times, supporting both patient demand and regulatory compliance.

  • Share digital images quickly and securely, avoiding slide shipment
  • Access expert opinions to improve diagnostic accuracy
  • Reduce patient wait times while meeting regulatory requirements
Research and education

Standardizing efficiency and high quality

Digital images enable more efficient education and research, even during the diagnostic review. Use digital tags for easy follow-up and mark regions of interest with clear labels for quick identification. Unlike physical glass slides, which vary in availability and quality, digital images provide consistent, high-quality cases for all learners. Accessible on any platform—including tablets—they make training material easy to reach for students anywhere.

  • Tag and annotate images for streamlined education and research
  • Equal access to high-quality cases regardless of location
  • Cross-platform availability for flexible learning
