Workflow for instant digital pathology means for you: Fresh tissue can be examined immediately after an excision without lengthy procedures. This allows for the direct assessment of the specimen in the operating room. Based on the acquired images, decisions concerning the continuation of the surgery or the taking of further biopsies can be made.
The tissue is processed directly after excision without fixation.
The specimen is then quickly and easily stained with a fluorescent dye and mounted on a glass slide.
The glass slide is subsequently inserted into the VivaScope 2500.
The VivaScope 2500 rapidly scans the excised tissue and reveals the cellular
morphology.
During the surgical intervention, the specimens can be evaluated microscopically and the procedure adaptedaccordingly.
The examined tissue remains unharmed by the procedure and can be processed for histopathological and integrative analysis later on.
