October 2019—ARUP Laboratories and Techcyte, a developer of artificial intelligence–based image analysis solutions for the diagnostics industry, have developed an AI-augmented ova and parasite detection tool.
Techcyte’s digital diagnostics platform preclassifies the fecal sample images captured by a Pannoramic 250 Flash III scanner (3DHistech). Preclassifying the images “allows ARUP’s technologists to efficiently read stained glass slides manually and improves the accuracy of parasite detection,” according to a press statement from ARUP. The technology is designed to quickly screen out negative results, enabling laboratorians to spend more time analyzing positive slides.
