BioImagene provides Global Digital
Solutions in Indian Pathology Market
Pune, January 19th, 2007.
BioImagene Inc, the Silicon Valley based Image Informatics
company today announced the launching of its Digital Pathology
solutions for the Indian market. The announcement was made
at the XIIth International CME (Continuing Medical Education)
in Surgical Pathology and Cytology, hosted in Pune, January
18-20.
Having successfully established its presence in the U.S
digital pathology market, BioImagene is viewing the Indian
market to expand its global outreach. BioImagene’s
technological offering is a complete end-to-end solution.
This will enable scientists and pathologists to implement
a comprehensive scientific data/image management, processing
and analysis solution where image data and metadata will
be accessed, viewed and analyzed securely through a web browser.
The system’s flexibility would support remote consultations
for projects focused on the cancer market.
BioImagene’s CEO, Mr. Mohan Uttarwar said “BioImagene
would like to take digital pathology to a whole new level
by making it easy and affordable for pathologists to manage,
analyze, share, and report on their images with simple mouse
clicks.”
Dr. Kerschmann, Chief of Space Biosciences, NASA Ames Research
Center who is in India to speak at CME said, “With
escalating healthcare costs and shortage of qualified physicians
in developed countries, Digital Pathology solutions provide
great global opportunities for available lower cost markets
like India”.
Dr. Pradhan, Organizing Chairman of Pune CME 2007 said,”BioImagene’s
solutions mark the start of a hi-tech digital era in pathology
imaging technology. This will benefit pathologists by:
• Digitization of glass slides and their better visualization
on a computer screen.
• Simultaneous image access for more than one pathologist,
easing peer review/second opinion processes with online sharing
and collaboration of images.
• Image manipulation to assist in sub specialties like
immunohistochemistry, cytology especially pap smears.”
