Sakura Finetek at ECP 2025: Where tradition meets the future in histopathology
We were excited to join the global pathology community at ECP 2025 in Vienna. Here’s how Sakura Finetek contributed to the congress theme: “Tradition meets the future.”
"Training was excellent, it's very responsive. They listened to what our needs were for the department and what the staff needed."
“Previously, the advanced staining system we utilised in the lab made us faster than competitors in the area, but it still took us up to 3 days to diagnose. Now, we create a lean, efficient workflow, thanks to the 30 independent stations of Sakura’s Genie.”
The hospital implemented digital pathology to enable remote diagnosis and improve efficiency. They introduced the Tissue-Tek Prisma® Plus and Tissue-Tek Film® Coverslipper to optimise the laboratory workflow and ensure high-quality digital scanning of slides. The article emphasises the importance of thorough preparation and automation in the transition to digital pathology.
"The continuous workflow of Sakura has an impact on all the steps in the life of the lab. SMART Automation increases the speed and capability to process tissue. When your professionals start using SMART Automation, they’ll experience the positive changes in their daily work. Safer for the patients, safer for the technicians."
