KUBTEC® Unveils Advanced Imaging System to Revolutionize Pathology Labs

KUBTEC® Unleashes PICASSO® Plus: The Future of Pathology Imaging

KUBTEC®, a well-known player in the realm of pathology specimen imaging solutions, has made waves with the launch of its latest innovation, the PICASSO® Plus Specimen Radiography System. This cutting-edge technology is set to enhance efficiency within pathology labs significantly, providing a stark upgrade over its predecessors.

Sophisticated Imaging Technology

The standout feature of the PICASSO® Plus is its implementation of Amorphous Selenium Direct Capture Technology. This is a breakthrough that has gained traction due to its excellence in mammography systems. The incorporation of this technology into pathology imaging is groundbreaking as it extends the high standards already seen in breast cancer diagnostics into surgical pathology.

In addition, the system is fortified with state-of-the-art workflow management features, notably the renowned Image Blender™. This innovative tool allows for Dual Specimen Imaging, a feature that combines both X-ray and optical images. Such a capability brings invaluable assistance to Pathologists' Assistants, enabling them to identify surgical clips, margins, and microcalcifications swiftly and accurately.

Celebrating the Launch

The revelation of the PICASSO® Plus was marked by a special event held at KUBTEC's headquarters in Stratford, Connecticut. The ceremony, which included a ribbon-cutting, featured Paul S. Lavoie, Chief Manufacturing Officer of the State of Connecticut. Lavoie lauded KUBTEC's achievements, proclaiming the launch to be a significant milestone for healthcare, accentuating the crucial role of innovative technology developed in Connecticut. He praised KUBTEC for contributing to the evolution of healthcare diagnostics through their remarkable advancements.

A Vision for Future Diagnostics

In his remarks during the launch, Vikram Butani, the CEO of KUBTEC®, articulated the vision that prompted the development of this system. He emphasized the critical role that Amorphous Selenium Direct Capture Technology plays in enhancing diagnostic procedures. Butani envisions a seamless integration of high-quality imaging technology transitioning from mammography to the operating room and subsequently into the realm of pathology. This integration assures the delivery of superior imaging quality needed for accurate diagnostics in breast tissue analysis within pathology labs.

Features for Enhanced Efficiency

The PICASSO® Plus does not stop with just imaging innovations; it also introduces advanced operational features. Among these is the voice command capability, which employs innovative speech recognition technology, allowing users to navigate hands-free. This feature enhances user experience by minimizing interruptions during intricate work.

Additionally, the system comes equipped with a Pablo® tablet, an innovative tool that permits easy access to imaging and annotation capabilities from any location within the pathology lab. This seamless accessibility promotes an efficient workflow, ensuring that professionals can transition smoothly from one phase of a project to another without hitches. The Pablo® tablet further employs voice and gesture commands, embodying a complete touch-free operational experience.

Conclusion

With the official introduction of the PICASSO® Plus Specimen Radiography System, KUBTEC® is not only setting a new standard in the pathology imaging sector but is reinforcing its commitment to revolutionizing healthcare through advanced imaging technologies. This progressive step enhances the capabilities of pathologists, ensuring that they are equipped with the best tools available to assist in making critical health decisions.
