“Digital pathology is revolutionizing pathology practice and with software support such as that provided by Pathomation the ease of use of virtual microscopy will soon be close to that of the optical microscope. The experience with Pathomation during a European School of Pathology course was very positive. Slide distribution was rapid, on large screens of superb quality but even on tablets and smart phones quite satisfying.” 

“After using the software in an e-learning context – ESCOP (ESP) courses in Craiova – I can say that Pathomation is an unique software that should be used across all e-learning platforms. Its power comes from user friendly browser-based viewer, that dose not need any user training or software installation. It simply works naturally. Having all major slide formats implemented makes it even more powerful so inter-group slide sharing is no longer a problem.”

“The Pathomation platform has made training clients substantially more efficient. It enables us to use digital images scanned on different digital platforms, all on one site, without requiring downloading individual software programs. In addition, the online storage allows visualisation of images anywhere around the world, enabling collaboration in clinical research studies with pathologists anywhere.”

“We used the Pathomation software to organise a ring study in our Liver Metastasis Research Network. The versability, the user-friendliness and the integration within our existing website were amazing. Both from the side of the organisator as from the side of the participants in this study it was a pleasure to work with it.”

“Since my first interraction with the Pathomation ’s virtual slide viewer I appreciated its ease of use and fast response for both computer and tablet application. During a European School of Pathology course hands-on training session, I was able to utilize it on site without any prior training. Natural and intuitive controls make this piece of software the ideal tool for both pathology training and diagnostic consulting.”

“The pathomation system allows simultaneous reading of sections by multiple participants, thereby increasing greatly teaching opportunities and interactive discussion. Because it is user friendly, it is a major advantage for teaching pathology at the undergraduate and postgraduate level. It would also be a major tool for the discussion of difficult cases.”

“We used the Pathomation software at the ESCOP (ESP) course in Zagreb and we can say that it is a fast-working, user-friendly and versatile tool for education and slide sharing.”

“The use of virtual slides as prepared by the team of Pathomation for the web portal of our EScoP course on thyroid gland was smooth and easy. I can hardly imagine more intuitive and dummy-proof interface. I was also amazed by how quickly (virtually instantly) the slides loaded when moved and/or zoomed. Thus, i can only cordially congratulate to the authors of the software solution and ask them to keep walking!”

“What the team at Pathomation are doing is really innovative in my opinion. The flexibility the system gives me to create learning modules and quizzes on my educational site pathkids.com is unparalleled. There is an explosion of interest in digital pathology which will undoubtedly form an important component of the future of clinical diagnostics as well as educating the next generation. Widespread adoption is currently being held back somewhat by proprietary file formats and limitations on viewing whole slide images outside of individual secure hospital networks. Pathomation’s system allows me to remove these limitations by sharing multiple file formats from the different scanners in my educational network. Yves and his team are always on hand to help and develop the system according to individual needs and evolution of this fascinating and revolutionary new way of working.”

“At UAntwerp we have been working with Pathomation for virtual microscopy in education since 2016. Every academic year, 2,500 students from 7 different educational programmes use this tool now. It is possible, for example, to share unique (patient) material with students or to have all students prepare practical exams at the same time. The tool works very well, efficiently and quickly, to the great satisfaction of the teachers and students. At the University of Antwerp the tool is integrated in Blackboard Ultra.”

“Everything was available easily online.”

“It was really convenient that all the content came online via Blackboard”

“It was very nice to be able to review the slides from the practicals again at home”

“I would really like to thank you for this platform, it is like a dream come true.”
