Visiopharm annotations

Core capabilities of PIMS for Life Sciences

  • Create, edit, import, and manage complex annotations within one unified workspace. Integrate results from image analysis tools such as QuPath, ImageJ, Visiopharm, or HALO and review everything centrally.


    PIMS LS acts as middleware, eliminating fragmented workflows and window flipping.

  • Go beyond images. Capture structured data via customizable forms and integrate external metadata sources directly alongside your slides ensuring all relevant research information is accessible in one place.

  • Quickly retrieve slides across departments, storage locations, and projects using advanced search capabilities. Designed for large-scale research environments with complex image repositories.

  • Organize slides efficiently with flexible project structures and tray-based image sets. Reduce manual handling and accelerate study setup.

  • Export high-resolution figures with full control over macro images, labels, annotations, scale bars, and file formats ready for publications or reports.

  • Host live multi-head digital microscope sessions from anywhere. Invite collaborators via a simple link and review, annotate, and assess slides together in real time.

  • Seamlessly integrate third-party AI algorithms and image analysis software to enhance data processing and accelerate insight generation without disrupting your existing infrastructure.

PIMS LS supports:

  • Academic research institutions

  • Pharma & biotech research teams

  • AI developers working with Whole Slide Images

  • CROs and multi-site research networks

Designed for Scalable Research Environments

Whether you are building datasets, validating biomarkers, developing AI models, or running global studies: PIMS LS scales with your research.
