Philips to Introduce Latest Advancements In Digital Pathology at the European Congress of Pathology 2020 Virtual Event

December 4, 2020

Philips will introduce their latest advancements in digital pathology at the European Congress of Pathology 2020 virtual event, Dec. 6-8. Building on its strong portfolio to support oncology clinical decision-making, the company brings together the power of imaging, pathology, genomics, and longitudinal data with insights from artificial intelligence, to empower clinicians to deliver clear care pathways with predictable outcomes for every patient.

Pathology is vital to healthcare delivery, with 70% of decisions affecting a person’s life involving a laboratory or pathology test [1]. However, with current resource shortages, the growing volume of complex requests, and workflow inefficiencies across systems and departments, pathology labs are facing major pressures on multiple fronts.

Rather than viewing oncology as many single moments of care, Philips envisions a continuous care pathway empowered by integrated solutions for oncology and pathology that help transform and enhance multi-disciplinary workflows, including the oncology tumor board process. Critical patient data is made visible for both oncologists and pathologists, which allows them to collaborate more efficiently, to drive the right care in the right sequence at the right time.

By taking a systems view across the imaging enterprise, Philips leverages the power of smart diagnostic technologies and advanced informatics to remove the obstacles standing in the way of optimized workflows. The newly released Philips IntelliSite Pathology Solution features a leading-edge user experience (UX), enhancing the ease of use while helping streamline the imaging workflow in an automated digital solution. With this latest iteration, the company connects healthcare systems to scale digital operations and improve efficiency in high volume scanning, stimulate collaboration, and enable precision diagnosis.

Philips IntelliSite Pathology Solution offers an open, scalable, and interoperable platform that supports flexibility in deployments of image analysis software tools, strengthening Philips’s commitment to the Open Pathology platform. Other software tools allow developers and researchers to work with data natively in the iSyntax format for core research and algorithm development, enabling collaboration for education and the creation of third-party applications.

“A precise diagnosis informs the patient’s care pathway progress, from screening and diagnosis to treatment, monitoring, assessment, and the transition toward home care,” said Kees Wesdorp, Chief Business Leader Precision Diagnosis at Philips. ”Philips integrated solutions for oncology, including this latest enhancement in digital pathology, help empower the cancer care team to reach clinical treatment decisions based on richer dashboards, clinical images, reports, and structured patient data. The seamless integration of information into the oncology workflow will help improve the clinician experience and ultimately, patient outcomes.”

PolarisAR describes STELLAR Knee as a mixed-reality surgical navigation platform that guides TKA procedures by displaying measured and computed data overlaid directly in a 3D environment. The mixed-reality system acts as a spatial computer, creating continuous data exchange between the surgeon and the software to help enhance surgical decision-making while simplifying operating room workflow.
This February, the first enrolled patient underwent open surgical aortic arch reconstruction at the University of Pennsylvania, Presbyterian Medical Center, Philadelphia, PA.  During the surgery, the Duett Vascular Graft System was successfully deployed to connect the native left common carotid artery to the surgical graft.
"Our ultra low insertion loss Athermal AWG Multiplexers along with temperature-hardened low-drift AAWG specifically designed for the industrial temperature applications will be marketed aggressively through partnership companies in the East Asia and EU regions after its success in the North America," says Dr. Donald Yu, CMO of POINTek, who runs global marketing operations from Los Angeles, California.
AUX-001 is an innovative, once-daily, extended-release formulation of Nicorandil. For decades, immediate-release, twice daily Nicorandil has been a cornerstone treatment for chronic angina symptoms outside the US, distinguished by its dual mechanism of action that targets both the micro- and macrovascular coronary artery flow bed, and providing sustained angina symptom relief without the common issue of tachyphylaxis seen with other anti-anginal vasodilators like long-acting nitrates. AUX-001 offers efficacy comparable to conventional anti-anginal medications such as beta-blockers, calcium channel blockers, and long-acting nitrates while also potentially enhancing control of the underlying coronary disease and reducing angina related hospitalizations.
The rehabilitation robotic glove is a training device that combines EMG electromyographic feedback and flexible robotics for patients with stroke or hand disabilities to train and repair dexterity.
