Process Record Slide – PRS – Process Control Slide for Each IHC （Immunohistochemisty）Staining

Successful immunohistochemistry (IHC) diagnosis starts with an effective process quality control (QC).

At present, laboratories are not able to process patient tissue samples with co-resident control materials on a single slide in accordance with the World Health Organization (WHO)’s strict requirement. In addition, laboratories have never had access to a calibrating system that can track and improve the IHC process.

But this is about to change. Process Record Slide is an innovative solution that adds quality control monitoring for the patient tissue section on a single glass slide.

FEATURES AND USES

IHC Staining – Get an effective record of the IHC staining experience

Quality Control Evaluation – Target data provides objective QC evaluation of the processing experience

Concentration Ruler – Target data forms the basis of an antigen concentration ruler

Pre-Screening – The ruler provides a digital imaging baseline for pre-screening

Imaging Adjustment – The ruler supports imaging adjustment so the viewing Pathologist can make the best diagnostic interpretation

2nd Opinion and Remote Diagnostic Opportunity – Because the record is attached to the sample, a second observer gets a complete picture of what happened in the process

APPLICATIONS ACROSS MEDICAL DISCIPLINES

The PRS technology has applications in many areas of medical research and development. At present, the Pathology QC application is the only area in medical diagnostics not covered with process controls and standards. Various uses include process control, clinical studies, and R&D testing of new drugs.

WHY YOUR INVESTMENT MATTERS

A medical device can take years to bring to the market. We believe PRS is game-changing solution that we want to put in the hands of pathologists and lab technicians as early as March 2018.
