![]() Whole slide imaging has gained tremendous acceptance within pathology education because of its many advantages over traditional teaching methods. Watch a brief video of the new VENTANA Vector software. This innovative software is available anywhere, anytime, and is supported on a range of tablets and mobile devices. The software enhances the learning experience, engagement and collaboration for students while providing efficiencies for educators. The platform provides pathologists and educators with tools to build interactive training, from course development to student evaluation, and can be used to quickly and easily share scanned images with colleagues around the globe. (Ventana), a member of the Roche Group, announces the release of VENTANA Vector software, a new platform for pathology training and collaboration.

The average number of tissue sections per case was 7 in group A and 8 in group B.Ĭonclusions :There is a clear benefit of standardizing and optimizing the number of cuts per slide in terms of storage (saving 19%), biopsy sampling (14% more tissue) and error rate (35% less), including a not negligible decrease in the scanning time (9%) in the study conducted. The space occupied on the hard disk was 11.87 GB in group A and 9.6 GB in group B (475 MB/case vs 385 MB/case, respectively). The error rate was higher than it had been found in previous studies (2-3%) with 6% errors in group A and 3,9% errors in group B. The average scanning time was 5 hours 40 minutes (6m 48s / slide) in group A and 5 hours 10 minutes (12m 24s/slide) in group B. ![]() The process was repeated 4 times to calculate averages. ![]() They were scanned at 20x magnification in routine way using the Ventana iScan scanner Coreo (Roche diagnostics). MethodsĪ total  of  25  endoscopic  samples  (5  esophageal,  5 gastric, 5 duodenal, 5 colonic inflammatory, and 5 colonic neoplastic) were selected with the intention of comparing different parameters (scanning time, error rate during scanning and hard disk storage) between the original histological glass slides (group A: 2 slides per case, 50 preparations) and new sections, with levels grouped into a single slide (group B: 1 slide per case, 25 preparations). In order to optimize time and space a comparative study in our center has been carried out. The scanning time and the high size of the files are still considered suboptimal for full implementation. ![]() Scanning histological or cytological preparations is a crucial element in the process of digitization of Pathology Departments, along with the traceability of tissue samples and the reports management. ![]()
