MacroPATH
The new line of Digital Imaging Systems for Grossing
“If the dimensions of the specimen are not recorded, the key section not taken, and the proper special studies not performed
at the time of the initial gross examination, the chances of acquiring this information may be lost forever…”

A new innovative tool for macro digital imaging acquisition. With a superior quality
camera, improved specifications and built-in LED illuminator, the MacroPATH pro is
the ideal solution for high quality photography of gross specimens.
The user oriented system enables quick and easy capture, annotation and storage
of images for diagnostic support, scientific publications, teaching purposes and
research documentation. Users can augment their patient image cases with video
and audio capabilities included with the system.
The MacroPATH pro camera allows flexibility for installation in all working conditions.
Grossing stations, photographic stands, dissection tables, and ventilation hoods are
all supported platforms. In addition, our standalone system with its uniquely designed
ergonomic stand is a great solution for laboratories with space constraints.

An ideal solution for laboratories requiring a “lean” macro imaging system in multiple
workstations. A small form factor, fixed objective lens and digital zoom all contribute to
ease of installation and use in the most space constrained environments.
Quick image capture and minimization of operator interaction both contribute to efficient
processing of patient cases.
Robust image annotation features provide pathologists the ability to build the full context
of the patient case, thereby enhancing their diagnostic report.
The MacroPATH lean camera offers several installation options. Grossing stations, current
photographic stands or stand- alone systems can be easily configured for use.

6 - REPORTING
5 - DOCUMENTING
The ability for MacroPATH to easily
capture, annotate, and store high quality
images enables the building of enhanced
patient reports with additional context
for the clinician, surgeon and oncologist.
Eliminates potential mismatching
of cassettes labeled/number of
blocks, sampled tissues. Valuable
documentation in educational/training
environment.

Image/Case database
Easily search and access patient cases by
standard and/or custom “tag” identifiers
Select desired image. Choose
appropriate Sizing tool (linear, area,
perimeter) and select area of interest.
The tool will automatically calculate the
length or area of your annotation.

Prostate dissection
Quickly annotate prostate cross sections
saving valuable time
4 - SECTIONING
Pick the image of interest.
Select “Sections” icon.
Draw on specimen to indicate sampled
areas. The tool will label sequentially.
Preset text
Quickly access routinely used
terms through pre-built menus
Video and audio
Complement your case with video and
mp3 audio
MacroPATH is flexibility
MacroPATH pro and MacroPATH lean offer unique solutions to ensure comfort for all users in every
working condition. The system can be configured to operate as stand-alone, on photographic stand
or fully integrated in grossing station.

MacroPATH is integration
In addition to stand-alone operations, MacroPATH can interface with a PACS or LIS through dedicated
or TWAIN protocols.

MacroPATH acts as a secondary application to
the LIS. Patient case identifier is held by LIS.
1 LIS launches MacroPATH.
2 User completes image acquisition and
annotation.
3 Assets are transferred to the LIS.
4 Additional operations by the user (image
manipulation, selection of images for inclusion
into patient reports, etc).
Use as TWAIN device
MacroPATH acts as a secondary application
launched via TWAIN protocol.
Multiple images are taken and manipulated and
then transferred to the primary application (LIS
or other program with TWAIN import capability).
MileVIEWER: the state-of-the-art digital system for telepathology
MileVIEWER
MacroPATH can be connected via internet to share all relevant information of the
grossing procedures with remotely located pathologists through the new MileVIEWER
software package.

MacroPATH is digital imaging
Milestone is committed to developing and introducing forward thinking digital systems to the macro
imaging market. Since 1996, the MacroPATH has led the way in enabling pathologists and assistants to
standardize and visually document grossing of patient specimens.
