INNOVATION THAT TAKES LABORATORY MEDICINE HIGHER

Innovation & Workflow Integration

Innovation in laboratory medicine, particularly pathology, hasn’t evolved much in the past 100 years. We are changing that by building automated tools to increase productivity in the lab, as well as provide a strong foundation for assistive downstream technologies such as artificial intelligence and machine learning. Real-time data from our device provides immediate and direct access to clinicians - this has never been seen before. Through our partnership with several leading academic medical center laboratories, we have created a product from the “inside of healthcare, out”, with clinical workflow being of paramount importance. We are here to improve patient outcomes, decrease the cost-of-care, and provide access for all patients.

SECTIONSTAR™

OUR "HISTOTECHNICIAN" HAS 3 PARTS:

A medical robotics platform mimicking the human histotechnician

THE HAND

Mimicking the human hand is challenging. Our brains and nerves control quite a bit more than we realize in everyday life. The mechanical functionality and hardware throughout the SectionStar automated system uses precision tolerances and delicate systems to move things around, replicating the human histotechnologist in the laboratory

THE EYE

The human eye is made up of over 2M working parts and can differentiate over 10M different colors - a tall order for SectionStar to compare to. The vision system in our device is paramount to ensure that we are cutting a full cross-section of tissue. Using our proprietary technology, this previously manual process will now ensure no human error.

THE BRAIN

The human brain controls our ability to think, talk, see, feel, hear and make decisions. This decision-making process is of utmost importance for SectionStar to replicate. In order to mimic a human, our device software communicates with each subsystem in real-time, while also providing bi-directional flow of information between the provider and the EHR.
