ANATOMIC PATHOLOGY

Innovative & Efficient
Anatomic Pathology.

At the core of VitalAxis LIS, our Anatomic Pathology solution delivers innovative experiences with template-based voice and touch-based grossing, seamless workflows, and integrated digital pathology.

Innovative and Intuitive Test Management

Advanced tools designed to make test processing faster, more accurate, and more efficient for every pathology lab.

Accessioning & Configuration

Default Test Configurations

Facility-based defaults process specimens automatically for faster results and reduced TAT.

Templatized Accessioning

Predefined case profile templates capture specimen data rapidly with standardized, high-quality data entry.

TC/PC, Global & Consult

Full workflow support for Technical, Professional, Global, and Consult components with independent tracking.

Processing & Workflow

Rule-Based Reflex Testing

Automatic ordering of additional tests based on pre-determined criteria and initial results.

Voice & Touch Grossing

Templatized voice and touch-based grossing guides pathologists through specimen processing with natural language dictation.

Auto-Stainer Integration

Seamless data transfer with industry-leading auto-stainers for automated staining, review, and report publishing.

Re-cuts & Additional Stains

Guided workflows for re-cuts and additional stain processing with full tracking from ordering through billing.

Auto Assignment

Rule-based algorithms assign technicians and pathologists based on expertise, workload, and availability.

Reporting & Diagnosis

Templatized Diagnosis Text

Standardized diagnostic templates ensure clear, consistent, and easily interpretable results and reports.

Micrograph & Slide Image Acquisition

Acquire micrographs and high-resolution slide images from digital microscopes, cameras, and slide scanners, and embed directly into pathology reports for visual context alongside diagnostic findings.

Schematic Diagrams

Patient reports include biopsy-site schematic diagrams with diagnostic annotations for comprehensive data capture.

Pathologist Review & Consult

Flexible workflows for case review, internal consults, and collaboration with clinical data and image slides.

Specialty-Specific Workflow & Reporting Model

Prostate Biopsy Specimens

Full support for Traditional Double Sextant, Transperineal and Bx Chip specimen types with structured collection workflows and standardized reporting.

GI Schematic Maps in Reports

Visual anatomical schematic maps embedded in GI biopsy reports for precise site-level documentation of specimen origin and findings.

Site-Based ICD Classification

Automated ICD code assignment in dermatology based on anatomical site, enabling accurate site-specific classification and streamlined billing.

Margins Support

Comprehensive surgical margin documentation with structured data capture for orientation, distance, and involvement status across specimen types.

Flexible Workflow & Data Model

Configurable architecture allows custom workflow stages, data model extensions, and report templates per specialty, adapting to each lab's unique protocols without code changes.

Structured Data for EMR Integration

Interface outputs include discrete, structured data fields mapped to EMR schemas, delivering optimized views in Epic, Cerner, and other systems instead of flat text blobs.

Partin Table on Reports

Auto-generate Partin Table data on prostate pathology reports, providing pathological stage probability predictions based on PSA, Gleason score, and clinical stage.

HAS Table on Reports

Include structured HAS (Histologic Activity Score) tables in reports for standardized inflammatory grading, enabling consistent scoring across specimens and pathologists.

Reference Lab Send-Outs

Certified Reference Lab Send-Outs

Integrated send-out testing with certified HL7/API connections to major reference laboratories. Orders, tracking, and results flow automatically with full chain-of-custody documentation.

📦

Receiving

Record package details including courier, tracking number, sender info, and specimens received. Verify all specimens against the manifest.

🔍

Verification

View and physically verify jar details: cassette counts, rule-outs, and notes. Supports barcode scanning for fast, accurate confirmation.

Grossing

Physically verify cassettes and record specimen details including size, shape, color, texture, and gross description.

🔬

Embedding

Verify cassette counts per jar, review grossing comments, and enter embedding-specific notes for downstream processing stages.

🪐

Microtomy

Track tissue block sectioning with cassette-level verification. Log cut quality, section thickness, and flag blocks requiring re-cuts or additional levels.

📋

Case Assembly

Consolidate all slides, blocks, and stains into a complete case package. Verify slide-to-block matching and confirm readiness for pathologist review.

Integrated Digital Pathology

High-resolution digital slide scanning, AI-powered image analysis, and seamless integration with hospital and clinical applications.
