KUBTEC® Expands into Europe with the Launch of PICASSO® Plus

KUBTEC®, known for its innovative pathology imaging solutions, has achieved a significant milestone with the installation of the first PICASSO® Plus system in Europe. This remarkable introduction took place at Falu Lasarett, the largest hospital in the Dalarna region of Sweden, marking the company's strategic expansion into the European market.

The PICASSO® Plus System is a cutting-edge specimen imaging device designed specifically for pathology laboratories. It delivers superior X-ray images that rival those of traditional mammography, equipped with advanced workflow management features. One standout technology is the Image Blender™, which combines dual imaging from X-ray and optical sources. This functionality assists pathologists and their assistants in swiftly identifying critical surgical clips, margins, and microcalcifications within specimens.

At Falu Lasarett, this state-of-the-art system has been installed in the mammography radiology department. Radiologists are the first to review the obtained images, while pathologists have the opportunity to consult these images as needed. According to clinical staff at the hospital, the system has made a significant impact during its early applications, with one member of the team remarking, “PICASSO® Plus is incredibly user-friendly, and the image quality is outstanding. Even small biopsies contained in plastic containers with formalin clearly exhibit microcalcifications.”

The adoption of the PICASSO® Plus system at Falu Lasarett exemplifies the rising demand for imaging technology that optimizes workflows in microscopy labs while enabling precise sample evaluations. KUBTEC expresses gratitude to the Falu Lasarett team and the Dalarna Region for their trust as the company aims to support the hospital’s endeavors in the forthcoming years.
