PIMS for Diagnostics

The comprehensive Image Management Software for Diagnostic Pathology Labs 

PIMS Diagnostic (PIMSDX) is a state-of-the-art digital pathology image management and viewing solution designed to empower pathologists and diagnostic lab professionals with an advanced, user-friendly platform organising the image viewing workflow from lab to pathologist. PIMSDX was co-created in close collaboration with Pathology Labs, bringing together pathology lab expertise and industry software design to build an efficient solution addressing the real needs of pathology labs.
 

Key Features of PIMS:

Unified Image Management: PIMSDX provides a secure and scalable platform for the management of digital pathology images even in multi site, multi format settings, ensuring easy web browser-based access to critical data for end users.
 
Personalised diagnostic workflow: Configurable worklists and filters allow each user to define exactly how they want to work, so you get the right image at the right time.
 
Universal Image Diagnostic Viewing: PIMSDX operates on PMA.core CE-IVD certified technology for viewing and measuring distances and areas for an extensive list of supported image file formats. which future proofs your digital pathology lab.
 
Intuitive User Interface: Designed with the end user in mind, PIMSDX offers an intuitive and user-friendly experience for professionals at all levels of expertise. We had one thing in mind reduce the time required for your diagnosis.
 
Hospital Integration and Interoperability: PIMSDX comes with a versatile integration engine for HL7 based information exchange with laboratory information systems.
 
Access third party AI algorithms: PIMSDX comes with an AI marketplace, you can access a menu of third party AI algorithms. Additionally it can program an automated AI workflow for a specific clinical category, or you request AI analysis on the fly.  
 
Seamless Expansion: PIMSDX runs on the same PMA.core technology as other pathomation products; by adding modules, one solution can support your needs for training, teaching, researching and knowledge sharing within the pathology community.
ACCESS YOUR SLIDES ANYWHERE

Don’t install, simply login. PIMSDX is fully webbrowser based, there is no need to install software or have a dedicated device. No complex configurations or import procedures. The Pathomation IMS system reads any vendor proprietary whole slide image format right away, including brightfield and fluorescence images as well as z-stacks and time series.

Geo-replication provisions allow you to build a global infrastructure. You can move from one case to the next without noticing they are hosted in different continents

UNIVERSAL AI ANNOTATION VIEWER

Our IMS enables not only fast viewing of whole slide images, but also annotations of integrated third-party AI including analysis result meta data.

See results from third party AI algorithms in PIMSDX and experience a unified viewing environment that can handle all annotation results even large multipoint data sets. Our list of working integrations includes Mindpeak and Aiosyn. Contact us if you want to add your AI project to our list.

USER MANAGEMENT

The Pathomation IMS software supports out of the box user management but can also be configured to work with other identity management systems.

Support for third-party directory services means that you can scale the IMS across multiple instances without the need for user replication.

LIS AND EMR INTEGRATION

PIMSDX Health integration exchange server listens to the HL7 or FIHR messages sent by your LIS and lab instruments. After initial configuration the software will link biopsy numbers, clinical information and workflow status with the scanned whole slide images.  

BROAD SUPPORT FOR STORAGE OPTIONS

Minimize the transfer of large data and leave data where they are, whether this be a hard disk, network storage, Azure or S3-compatible cloud storage.

 

FLEXIBLE WORKFLOW

The workflow module is the starting point for all your pathology tasks. The module shows the information you need in a fully configurable grid. In the grid you can include all information sent as HL7 messages, for instance patient ID, name, clinical information and current location in the lab workflow. You can search and filter the list and build custom queries.

DIAGNOSTIC ACCURACY

The Pathomation IMS system  is 21 CFR part 11 compliant, PMA.core is CE-IVD labeled for diagnostic use* for viewing images and measuring distances and surface area. With the tracking feature you can check if you have viewed the complete tissue. PIMSDX is designed to prevent errors and patient mix-ups, for example you can only work in one case at the time.

*Please note PIMSDX does not have FDA approval for diagnostic use in the USA.

IMAGE ANNOTATING AND OTHER ACTIONS

With PIMSDX you have access to a state of the art annotation menu. Scanned slides can be rejected for quality reasons and sent back for rescanning.
