MacroPATH, Macro Digital Imaging System-2

ENHANCED PATIENT SAFETY WITH IMPROVED REPORTING MODERN GROSSING DOCUMENTATION Grossing of biospecimens is a crucial step in the pre-analytical phase, with significant impacts on the entire diagnostic process and final diagnoses. Traditionally, operators take subjective notes, which can be prone to misinterpretation by pathologists. This time-consuming step is also performed using various tools without a standardized approach. As a result, modern pathology labs are seeking tools to transition towards Digital Pathology and Image Enhanced Reports (IER) to provide precise information about the grossing...
