Digital Pathology Services

Services for high volume scanning capability and professional program development

Philips Digital Pathology Services incorporate sophisticated imaging and management technology for rapid evidence-based decisions and the professional support services necessary to achieve operational excellence.

In spite of rapid developments in medical technology, the fundamental inefficiencies of glass slides remain, including handling/ transfer, and limited scalability. In addition, as the workload increases, the pool of active pathologists shrinks. Digital pathology is the solution to these issues

Why digitize ?

A digitized specimen has the potential to open new opportunities for increased efficiency and a reduction in the shortcomings of a traditional analog histopathology workflow. A digitized specimen does not break, get lost, cost time and money to ship, or require significant physical storage space. It can be shared remotely for quick collaboration and archived/accessed at a moment’s notice. Pathologists can organize and review a large number of cases with ease
