RoseSTATION is an all-in-one mobile workstation for on-site evaluation of Fine Needle Aspiration (FNA) procedures. Utilizing the unit, capable of being fully equipped with dedicated reagents and consumables, cytologists can collect and deliver images as quicky as possible, at the highest quality, while patients are still under sedation or during endoscopic analyses.
RoseSTATION is designed for Rapid On-Site Evaluation (ROSE) at the patient’s bedside, where a fine needle aspiration (FNA) biopsy allows the cytologist to triage the sample. This process reduces the length of the procedure, helps to guide and direct the sample in real time, and overall helps to manage the patient’s procedure alongside the performing clinician at the point of care. It is therefore essential to acquire and deliver images of the highest quality as quickly as possible. The aim of this rapid image acquisition is to provide immediate feedback on cellular adequacy, assist in making a definitive diagnosis and potentially eliminate the need for repeat procedures.
Until now there has not been a system to carry out ROSE on location. When needed, cytology personnel must assemble the required items and transport them to the on-site location with a mobile cart.
The RoseSTATION addresses this problem.
High Flexibility
The mobile RoseSTATION is equipped with all standard features for performing FNA, including a forced-air slide dryer, a LED lamp, AISI 304 stainless steel workbench, drawers for consumables and spares, a universal power supply, industrial castors, a laptop tray, a shock-absorbing base for the microscope and a slide-out drawer with a molded support specifically designed for the microscope.
