Philips, Paige Partner to Deliver Clinical Grade AI Apps to Pathology Laboratories

– Philips and Paige form a strategic partnership to deliver AI-based  cancer assessment tools are poised to help pathologists improve speed and accuracy of cancer diagnostics, ultimately leading to better patient care.

– Philips IntelliSite Pathology Solution in combination with Paige Prostate aims to provide an intuitive digital & computational pathology workflow experience. Philips plans to offer the CE-marked Paige Prostate to European pathology labs in 2020.

Philips today announced a strategic partnership with Paige, a provider of computational pathology to deliver clinical-grade AI applications to pathology laboratories. The AI-based cancer assessment tools, starting with Paige Prostate, aim to help pathologists identify, quantify and characterize cancer in tissue samples and make precise diagnoses more efficiently. This may, ultimately, positively impact pathologist’s workflow and treatment planning for patients.

The Important of Pathologists in Disease Detection & Diagnosis

Pathologists play a crucial role in the detection and diagnosis of a broad range of diseases, including cancer. The increasing number of cancer cases in the aging population, and rapid advances in personalized medicine have resulted in significant increases in the complexity of pathology diagnostics and the workload imposed on pathologists. Digital images of tissue samples make it possible for pathologists to easily diagnose these samples on a computer display using advanced imaging analysis and workflow software.

Philips to Offer CE-Marked Paige Prostate to European Pathology Labs

Philips IntelliSite Pathology Solution in combination with Paige Prostate aims to provide an intuitive digital & computational pathology workflow experience. Philips plans to offer the CE-marked Paige Prostate to European pathology labs in 2020. AI solutions for other markets and additional disease areas are expected to follow suit.

Paige’s technology has demonstrated promising results, and the collaboration aims to deliver this kind of technology into routine clinical practice. Several pathology laboratories have already converted their glass slide-based workflow to digital, using the clinically approved digital pathology solution from Philips. Once digital images are available, the CE marked Paige Prostate software is applied automatically to detect and localize prostate cancer. This technology provides pathologists with valuable information they can use in their evaluation of prostate biopsies.

“Pathology is transforming into a digital discipline and holds a strong promise for using AI solutions to aid, streamline, and enhance decision-making,” said Leo Grady, CEO of Paige. “Together with digital pathology providers, starting with Philips, one of the leaders in the clinical digital pathology space, we want to convert this promise into a clinical reality that supports pathologists and their patients.”
