The sample tissue is breast tissue prepared using the DAKO HercepTest Reagent Kit. The PATHIAM system consists of the BioImagene iScan slide scanner, computer with the PATHIAM Software, monitor, keyboard and mouse.
The PATHIAM System digitizes formalin-fixed, paraffin embedded normal and neoplastic tissue and provides semi-quantitative analysis of extent and intensity of stained tissue, providing the pathologist with an aid to interpretation of the level of expression of HER2/neu in breast cancer tissue. The pathologist is presented with a digital image of the tissue section and a suggested staining score (0 to 3). The pathologist then makes an assessment of the digital image and reports his/her score. Alternately, the pathologist can simply use the digitized image to perform his interpretation of the level of expression, without employing the software.
Hardware: The iScan slide scanning device captures digital images of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues that are suitable for storage, viewing and visual analysis. The device includes a digital slide scanner, racks for loading glass slides, an Intel based PC, dual core, dual Xeon processor, PATHIAM Software, and a monitor.
Software: The PATHIAM Software requires competent human intervention at all steps in the analysis process. The system is designed to complement the routine workflow of a qualified pathologist screening the immunohistochemically stained histological slides with additional quantitative data to assist the reproducibility of the slide interpretation. It allows the user to select the area of interest on the breast tissue image. The user marks the area of interest for the analysis. The system software makes no independent interpretations of the data. The software will act as a tool for the user, to improve consistency and data recording. The image produced digitally may also be used independent of the software, by allowing the pathologist to count from the digital image, rather than from the microscope.
