Unlocking Deeper Insights in Pathology

We are pioneering the use of stain-free Second Harmonic Generation (SHG) imaging and ML/AI-based analysis through our innovative digital pathology platform.

Second Harmonic Generation (SHG) Imaging

This cutting-edge technique allows us to visualize key tissue structures like fibrillar collagen in incredible detail and resolution – without working with issues of staining variation. The unparalleled resolution of SHG reveals granular structures of tissues unseen using conventional methods.

Advanced Quantitative Analysis

Using SHG images, our proprietary algorithms quantify tissue architecture and morphology imperceptible to the human eye.

Precise

Leverage quantitative and objective metrics to accurately stage disease

Detailed

Visualize subtle changes in microstructure to assess therapeutic response

Reproducible

Improve inter- and intra-observer agreement in the study of complex diseases

Complete

Obtain a 360° complete understanding to inform decisions

Second Harmonic Generation (SHG)

SHG imaging is a technique that involves a femotosecond laser interacting with non symmetrical structures within tissues to produce photons at half the wavelength of the excitation. This highlights biological structures and subtle changes within tissues in stunning detail. Compared to conventional staining and methodology, SHG offers:

  • 2D/3D imaging of tissues without exogenous stains
  • Enhanced visualization of collagen fibers at high resolution
  • Non-destructive imaging of unstained tissue

HistoHepa®

Our proprietary algorithm for quantification of Non-alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH). Using machine learning, we identified and developed indices incorporating key features that indicate the progression or regression of fibrosis, inflammation, ballooning and steatosis.

  • qFIBS index, quantification of 275 features to derive measures of qFibrosis, qInflammation, qBallooning, and qSteatosis
  • Colocalization analysis of Fibrosis and the activity of Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD)
  • Zonal analysis
