If you leave the microscope behind, would you ever go back?
Not many would. In a survey of 52 pathologists, 100% of them said that going digital helps reach diagnostic consensus and that they would never go back to non-digital.1 With our pathology slide scanners, the Image Management System (IMS) and a comprehensive set of software tools and capabilities, you can easily connect with supporting sub-specialists around the world on the quest for quick and confident diagnostic decisions that enhance patient care.
What can Philips digital pathology do for you?
The Philips digital pathology solution facilitates more efficient, remote and collaborative ways of working. Pathologists have seen efficiency gains of up to 15-20% per case from making the digital transition.2 Going digital helps reach diagnostic consensus.3 Working digitally can also help address the world’s acute shortage of trained pathologists.
An open platform for secure digital pathology image sharing
Interoperability with third-party AI applications aids AI-enabled digital pathology workflows, increasing efficiency for your organization. For example, 35 pathology labs are already using the Philips pathology solution and Ibex AI. This has been shown to result in productivity gains of up to 37%.4
More collaborative decision-making
See what more than 300 customers and over 20 hospital pathology laboratories have learned about going fully digital with the Philips solution. It facilitates collaboration with clinical teams through remote consultation, real-time case sharing and multidisciplinary discussions.
