Openpatho® offers a range of solutions for academic researchers, pharma and contract research organisations.

  • Slide scanning and storage: We provide a cheap and fast slide scanning cloud-based storage service using the Hammamatsu S-360 scanner. Our Openpatho® platform also offers a secure storage facility for proprietary curated datasets of our clients.
  • Annotation of whole slide images (WSI): Accurate labelling of WSI’s is a crucial step in the development of machine learning tools. For organisations who wish to develop their own image-based machine learning tools we provide a fast, cost-effective and accurate slide annotation service. This is delivered under the direction of expert histopathologists who are listed on the specialist register at the General Medical Council (UK). This service is applicable to traditional histology stains, immunohistochemistry and in-situ hybridisation (FISH and CISH).
  • Research consultancy: We complement our WSI annotation service with a research support service lead by our expert academic histopathologists and biomedical statisticians where necessary in order to optimise the final output.

Examples of solutions available on the Openpatho® platform include:

Annotation of histology digital images under the supervision of our expert histopathologists.

Image analysis for preclinical studies.

Development of new AI-derived  biomarkers either as a comprehensive end-to-end solution or a bespoke service.

Digital slide scanning service and cloud-storage of digital images in Dicom format.
