BioImagene launches the next generation Digital Pathology Solution Virtuoso™ - the next generation digital pathology solution will be demonstrated at the BioImagene Booth 802 at the USCAP Annual Meeting 2009
Cupertino, CA, March 04, 2009
BioImagene, the leading provider of innovative digital pathology solutions announced the launch of Virtuoso - the next generation digital pathology solution.
Virtuoso is a comprehensive suite of web-based software applications that work with BioImagene’s iScan™ slide scanners to provide an end-to-end workflow solution. It is a Role-Based system and it enables the various stakeholders, or roles - Pathologist, Histo-technologist, Lab Administrator, Clinician, etc - to improve the efficiency and quality of the various steps in the Anatomical Pathology workflow. It allows the user to scan glass slides, and then perform a wide range of functions - view, manage, manipulate, analyze, report and collaborate - in the digital form.
Dr Ajit Singh, CEO BioImagene commented, “Pathology workflow is complex. One needs a software application that is adept at orchestrating the various tasks performed by multiple roles in this complex environment - seamlessly and with high quality. That’s what Virtuoso does. The analogy to musical concert is compelling.” Dr. Singh added, “Virtuoso will accelerate the move of pathology into the digital age, ultimately becoming a key enabler for personalized medicine.”
Maryanne Amato, Director of GenPath services at BioReference Laboratories (NASDAQ: BRLI), an existing BioImagene customer said,” We welcome BioImagene’s Virtuoso solution and look forward to deploying the newly designed software to our customers. Laboratories today are information companies. We need all the support we can get to facilitate the flow of information to the physician in order to ultimately improve patient care. BioImagene’s digital pathology solutions give us the potential to rapidly provide information in a digital format that is more useful to our physician customers.”
The Virtuoso solution includes distinctly enhanced features in the user interface, slide navigation tools, LIS integration, reporting and includes a comprehensive menu of validated image analysis IHC protocols. This will strengthen Bioimagene’ s dominant market position.
