Leica
Microsystems announce the launch of its clinical workflow solution for Digital
Pathology. Digital Image Hub Enterprise* with its powerful image management,
integration and communication capabilities, in conjunction with a new high
performance, intuitive client viewer, SlidePath Gateway*, combine to make this
the ideal solution for clinical centers moving towards true Digital Pathology
implementation. Furthermore, Leica's Total Digital Pathology solutions now
provide an implementation of the DICOM Supplement 145 standard for both slide
scanning and viewing.
Flexible case aggregation capabilities in
Digital
Image Hub Enterprise utilizes slide barcodes to identify and automatically
consolidate multiple slides within a case into a worklist. The system can then
automatically associate the slides with appropriate case information by
querying the laboratory information management system (LIMS), thus presenting
both case information and digital slides concurrently. These comprehensive and
flexible communication specifications enable seamless integration of Digital Pathology
with world-leading anatomical pathology LIS providers, such as Cerner CoPath
Plus
TM and Sunquest (formerly Elekta) PowerPath, as well as
additional 3
rd party and bespoke systems via the inbuilt flexible
Integration Toolkit.
The
user-friendly interface and flexible reporting tools in
SlidePath
Gateway Client enable anatomical pathologists to follow the cases from
slide scanning right through to reporting.
For access
on the move, pathologists can view their digital slides through multiple
modalities including Internet Browsers and iPad, giving anytime, anywhere
access to cases for rapid second opinion or frozen section review. Access to
real time conferencing capability allows users to consult on cases with their
peers on demand. Technical controls, to help facilitate HIPAA compliance,
enable users and system administrators to be assured of the security and
integrity of clinical data.
