Roche uPath Digital Pathology Software

Roche has introduced uPath, an enterprise software system for digital pathology that replaces the previous Ventana Virtuoso software from Roche subsidiary Ventana Medical Systems. The new uPath system promises to decrease image rendering times and integrate automated image analysis functions, according to the company. In developing uPath, Roche acquired Leeds Virtual Microscope technology from the University of Leeds, U.K., and the Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust in the UK.
