Tele-pathology solution


 

Olympus has announced the sale of a complete tele-pathology solution to the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Cancer Network. The advanced solution combines the properties of the Olympus dotSlide and intraScope systems to provide both real-time
and virtual slide analysis as well as discussion capabilities. Olympus intraScope enables direct 1-2-1 control of a microscope from a remote site. This means that a slide that needs to be reviewed for second opinion or remote consultation can be
loaded at its source site and the microscope fully controlled by a user at a second site. This enables the reviewer to manipulate the slide and microscope as if they were physically at the instrument. Olympus dotSlide takes this whole process several steps further forward by scanning
entire slides at high resolution and fidelity into a virtual slide file, making them accessible and fully
navigable anywhere on the globe.
