Syracuse, New York / Tampa, Florida, March 27, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SUNY Upstate has announced the acquisition and implementation of Dynamyx™ software from digital pathology and cancer informatics solution provider Inspirata. Fully integrating pathology systems and making them available across the enterprise are the primary goals of this multi-year project.
Through its partnership with Inspirata, the NY-based medical institution recognizes new opportunities to present clinical data to its physicians in more efficient and effective ways. The intended outcome is to minimize the everyday burdens that slow down the diagnostic and decision-making processes.
“Data delivery in healthcare leaves a lot to be desired,” says Sam Carello, Director of Biomedical Informatics at SUNY Upstate. “One of our main goals is to help our pathologists and other users access information within a more natural workflow.”
Inspirata has implemented the Dynamyx software, in combination with a slide scanner refresh, to optimize the pathology department’s activities. Mark Lloyd, PhD, EVP and Founder of Inspirata emphasizes the benefits of this investment saying, “The buy-in from SUNY Upstate leadership demonstrates their forward-thinking approach to data delivery and the emphasis departments must have on selecting carefully crafted workflows to gain efficiencies within their area.”
This project will help automate the availability and extraction of diagnostic data from whole slide images and molecular datasets to further demonstrate the value of digital pathology. “This joint project serves as an important step in showing the value of comprehensive digital pathology software solutions like Dynamyx,” said Satish Sanan, CEO of Inspirata.
