Philips IntelliSite Pathology Solution receives 510(k) clearance

Philips IntelliSite Pathology Solution 5.1 has received 510(k) clearance from the US Food and Drug Administration. Philips was first to market an FDA-approved digital pathology solution in 2017 and is the most widely deployed digital pathology solution for primary diagnosis around the world.

The solution supports remote collaboration, and promotes teamwork, aiding diagnosis, boosting productivity, addressing staff shortages, and cutting costs. Philips IntelliSite Pathology Solution, is comprehensive and scalable, integrating hardware, software, storage, analysis, and enterprise-wide connectivity, providing pathologists with fully integrated, end-to-end digital workflows. This seamless integration helps pathologists deliver accurate diagnoses, ultimately improving patient outcomes.

Philips has already helped over 300 pathology laboratories implement digital pathology, helping pathologists to save time and collaborate virtually to deliver high-quality pathology reports and interact with other specialists in a patient’s multi-disciplinary care team. Philips’ digital pathology solution includes whole-slide scanners, image management system, and proven implementation and support services to guide the transformation from analogue to fully digital pathology workflows.

"Digital pathology is helping to revolutionise how we diagnose and potentially treat cancer. With the 510(k) approval we expand our ability to help pathology laboratories transform to fully digital workflows, saving time and easing the burden on pathologists and patients,” said Martijn Hartjes, Clinical Informatics Business Leader at Philips. “We are advancing the digital transformation in pathology and multi-disciplinary clinical collaboration between pathologists, radiologists, oncologists, and other healthcare professionals, empowering clinicians with the tools they need to deliver improved patient outcomes and care.”

Philips IntelliSite Pathology Solution also provides an end-to-end digital solution capable of securely leveraging cloud-based services to allow integration of advanced third-party AI-driven diagnostic applications. For example, a combination of Philips IntelliSite Pathology Solution and Ibex Medical Analytics’ AI software used to detect prostate cancer resulted in 27% efficiency gains that translated into a 37% productivity gain and very high accuracy levels across multiple tissue types.
