According to BioImagene, Virtuoso is a role-based system that enables pathologists, histo-technologists, lab administrators and clinicians to improve the efficiency and quality of the anatomical pathology workflow. It allows the user to scan glass slides and then perform a wide range of functions – including view, manage, manipulate, analyze, report and collaborate – in the digital form.
Amirsys’ PathIQ ImmunoQuery is believed to be the most widely used pathology informatics system for selecting and interpreting immunostains. It provides powerful meta-analysis and expert-based panels, and also provides high-resolution images of salient histologic features, tissue controls, antibody stains and diagnostic pitfalls.
Rob Monroe, chief medical officer of BioImagene, said: “The integration of PathIQ ImmunoQuery, the definitive source of immunohistochemistry diagnostic decision support, with Virtuoso, the digital pathology application, is great news for pathologists because it takes workflow integration to the next level.”
