PIMSLS

A unified environment for researchers working with Whole Slide Images

PIMS for Life Sciences (PIMSLS) is a comprehensive solution for digital pathology image management, research, analysis, and global multi-site collaboration. Designed specifically for the needs of academic pathologists, pharmaceutical researchers, and medical professionals, PIMSLS optimizes research workflows and enhances collaboration.

PIMSLS puts you in full control, allowing you to customize your workspace with the functions you need for your project. View all metadata, macro images, history, and forms in one centralized location. Whether you’re looking to annotate slides or integrate distributed heterogeneous databases, PIMSLS makes it easy.

This versatile tool unifies diverse research applications, enabling you to manage all your images within a single interface. The web browser-based software provides seamless access to your image applications for multiple concurrent users without the need to install license keys or software on individual PCs.

Key features of PIMSLS

ANNOTATIONS

PIMSLS comes with an Annotations panel where you can draw your own annotations of different shapes. You can import/export annotations from other imaging software to review and manage annotations for specific slides. PIMS acts as a middleware integrating image analysis results in one easy to use environment.

DATA MANAGEMENT

Digital pathology involves more than just whole slide images. You can create and add data forms in projects to capture user input. Oftentimes supplemental meta data is available in external data stores. These data stores can be integrated and consulted in conjunction with the image.                                                    

SEARCH FUNCTION

In large organisations with complex sets of images dispersed over different departments and storage locations, searching is of paramount importance. PIMSLS, offers you intuitive advanced search options, to quickly look through your image repositories.

RESEARCH WORKFLOW

PIMSLS allows different organization levels for the whole slide images. You can assign the same image in different projects. The tray feature is a quick and efficient method to create image sets for image research.                                                                                       

SNAPSHOTS

Export publication-grade figures and customize every detail of your snapshot, including:

  • Selected details such as macro image, barcode, label, and annotations
  • Resolution and file format
  • Scale bar position and format
CONFERENCING
Experience live, multi-head microscope sessions from anywhere in the world. Enjoy fully interactive sessions ideal for joint assessments and education. Easily invite users with a link.
