MacroPATH is a comprehensive tool designed to create digital documentation of the grossing process of surgical specimens and biopsies, providing pathologists with clear and unequivocal digital information for accurate diagnoses. The built-in high-resolution camera and the microphone allow for capturing images and videos at exceptional quality, while the vast suite of editing tools ensures the ability to estimate sizes and areas, add notes or create sections. MacroPATH combines ease of use and fast operation to expedite and standardize digital description as an integral part of the grossing workflow. Currently, operators often rely on various inadequate or manual tools, leading to time-consuming setups and impacting overall lab efficiency. In contrast, MacroPATH is always ready to use: capturing pictures, and recording voice notes or videos is now effortless, thanks to the foot pedal and waterproof touchscreen that provide immediate access to all functions. Furthermore, MacroPATH seamlessly enables the acquisition and automatic storage of documentation into specific case ID folders, avoiding errors and ensuring a comprehensive chain of custody for each specimen. This standardized approach enhances accuracy and reliability, making the diagnostic report a perfect complement for Telepathology. The sequence begins by entering the case ID through the barcode reader which automatically creates its dedicated folder. By using the built-in foot pedal, the operator can easily zoom in and out, take images and record videos. The operator can edit images to estimate sizes and areas, add notes or create sections and quadrants.
