RE: [Histonet] IHC imaging systems
I am setting up the Ventana system and performing validation, it's taking a little longer to set up then expected but the support has been excellent. Hopefully will have it running and validated in the next few months. Validation is the time consumer I found with setting up a system. Michael R.

We are currently using a system that was provided through Dako, but they no longer support it. So time to consider buying a new one. It needs to have an algorithm that allows the system to distinguish between labelled and not labelled cells and the percentage of each.

RE: [Histonet] IHC imaging systems
Paula There are many companies that have software that will do this for you. I would check the DPA website - www.digitalpathologyassociation.org. The decision you will make is going to be dependent on software capabilities, cost, if you need it to be 510K cleared, etc. Here is a link to the software vendors - note some of these are pathology system vendors https://digitalpathologyassociation.org/software-vendors Here is a link to the hardware vendors (scanners) some also have software but I'm not sure if you can purchase software only and you need to check if its compatible with your images https://digitalpathologyassociation.org/hardware-vendors Good Luck Liz Elizabeth A.
