VENTANA IMAGE ANALYSIS SYSTEM, MODEL KI-67
The Ventana Image Analysis System (VIAS) is an adjunctive computer-assisted image analysis system functionally connected to an interactive microscope. It is intended for use as an aid to the pathologist in the detection, classification and counting of cells of interest based on marker intensity, size and shape using appropriate controls to assure the validity of the VIAS scores.
In this application, the VIAS is intended to aid a qualified pathologist in the acquisition and measurement of images to quantify the percentage of positively stained nuclei in paraffin embedded breast cancer tissue specimens immunohistochemically stained for the presence of Ki-67 proteins using Ventana's reagents and nuclear hematoxylin. It is indicated for use in assessing the proliferative activity of normal and neoplastic breast tissue when used with in vitro diagnostic reagents marketed for these indications.
The VIAS is an adjunctive computer-assisted methodology to assist the reproducibility of a qualified pathologist in the acquisition and measurement of images from microscope slides of breast cancer specimens stained for the presence of Ki-67 receptor protein. The accuracy of the test result depends upon the quality of the immunohistochemical staining. It is the responsibility of a qualified pathologist to employ appropriate morphological studies and controls as specified in the instructions for the Ventana Ki-67 kit to assure the validity of the VIAS-assisted Ki-67 assessment.
