The Diagnostics & Research Institute for Pathology at the Medical University of Graz has selected the HALO AP digital pathology platform from Indica Labs to deliver primary diagnostics.
The enterprise digital pathology platform was selected alongside Aperio GT 450 scanners from Leica Biosystems for quality, performance, functionality, and usability.
HALO AP supports primary diagnosis with integrated AI-enabled workflows, streamlines second opinion requests and consults, supports research pipelines, and manages clinical trials all within a unified platform.
The Medical University of Graz anticipates reporting on ~400,000 glass slides generated annually by their institute beginning in January of 2025. The Institute plans to take advantage of support for the DICOM file format to ensure that all digitized data is easily accessible for current and future research. In addition, HALO AP will be integrated with the PAS Xanthos laboratory information system from PROGRAMMIERFABRIK GmbH that is currently deployed at the university hospital.
In addition to advancing diagnostic workflows, the Medical University of Graz plans to digitize tumor boards with HALO AP and will leverage annotated digital training sets created within the platform to enhance the education of medical students and resident pathologists.
