Microscopes International Announces Proscia Integration

Microscopes International is pleased to announce the integration of its uScope Navigator application and uScope family of whole slide scanners with the Proscia Pathology Cloud™ platform.

Pathology Cloud helps users get started with digital pathology in minutes. At its core lies an as-a-service infrastructure optimized for scalability, security, and cost-efficiency. The integration with uScope Navigator allows technicians to scan a tissue section, process it, and upload it to Pathology Cloud in a seamless, easy operation.

"This integration provides a tightly-coupled solution for sharing high-resolution whole slide images from the uScope™ slide scanner with pathologists world-wide. It makes the process of collecting the image, converting it, and uploading it a simple, single-click operation," said Jon Ward, CEO of Microscopes International.

uScope Navigator has been updated with two key features that support Pathology Cloud:

1. Native ability to generate Tiled TIFF (SVS) images.
2. Built-in upload support for the Pathology Cloud Platform.

According to Microscopes International CTO, Richard Rainbolt, "The Tiled TIFF format gives the uScope instant compatibility with a host of existing applications and uses."

"By integrating with partners like Microscopes International, our open-platform provides the best in class solutions pathologists need to drive the transition to a fully digital lab."
