The Diagnostic Applications software is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) medical device designed for image analysis and processing of digital pathology slides. Integrated with CaseManager DX and ClinicalViewer, it enables pathologists to analyze high-resolution images obtained from FFPE tissue specimens and cytology samples, supporting complex diagnostic and therapeutic decisions. Offering tools with various automation levels for precise measurements, it streamlines workflows while ensuring diagnostic accuracy. Intended for trained professionals, it serves as a decision-support tool in clinical practice.

Integration with CaseManager
Automatically organizes case data, displaying measurement results, charts, and masked images within the pathology workflow, facilitating diagnosis and collaboration.
Enhanced Result Management
Advanced features, including multi-view support and rescoring options, improve case processing, accessibility, and adaptability for varied diagnostic needs.
Secure, On-Premise Deployment
Offers a cost-effective, data-secure solution with local hosting, ensuring compliance with stringent privacy regulations while reducing risks associated with cloud-based systems.
Research and Education Support
Provides server-side storage for research scenarios and serves as a valuable training tool, offering annotated cases with algorithmic insights guided by experienced pathologists.
Data Integration and Archiving
Facilitates a data-driven clinical approach by integrating with patient information systems, supporting long-term storage, retrieval, and analysis of digital slides and algorithm outputs.
Additional features
Key Quantification BioMarkers
- Estrogen – The Estrogen tool helps the user to quickly and objectively measure the Allred Total Score on a selected region of the slide.
- Progesterone – The Progesterone tool helps the user to quickly and objectively measure the Allred Total Score on a selected region of the slide.
- HER2 – The HER2 tool helps the user to quickly and objectively measure the Field Score on a selected region of the slide.
- Ki67 – The Ki67 tool helps the user to quickly and objectively measure the proliferation Index on a selected region of the slide.
- GEPNET – The GEPNET tool helps the user to quickly and objectively measure the GEPNET score on a selected region of the slide.
PD-L1 – The MembraneQuant-based Lung PD-L1 tool helps the user to quickly and objectively measure TPS score on a selected region of the slide.
