Deep machine learning platform and world-class scanning hardware combine for a
complete digital pathology solution for veterinary, human and air quality labs
Techcyte Inc., a provider of deep learning image analysis solutions, and Motic, a leading provider of whole slide scanners, today announced the two companies will be cooperating to provide advanced solutions for scanning, image analysis, workflow, and reporting.
“Techcyte’s AI platform is a perfect complement to our innovative scanners. By integrating our low cost hardware with Techcyte’s advanced platform, we have a compelling and complete digital pathology solution for diagnostic labs.”, said Stephen Chan, CEO of Motic.
As part of the cooperation, Techcyte will sell the MoticEasyScan Pro whole slide scanner and Panthera L smart microscope, bundled with the Techcyte software; and Motic will become the exclusive provider for the Techcyte digital blood differential in China, Taiwan and Hong Kong.
