One platform. Your pathology workflow.

Pathestra combines LIS and specimen tracking in one configurable platform.

Specimen Tracking

Tracking

Know where every specimen, block and slide is - and what happens next.

Chain of custody across physical material with visibility at each workstation.

Key areas

  • Barcode scanning at every station
  • Specimen, block and slide chain of custody
  • Turnaround visibility and bottleneck alerts
  • Works alongside an existing LIS or standalone
Laboratory Information System

LIS

Manage cases, workflow, reporting and laboratory information.

A pathology LIS for case management, structured reporting and laboratory workflow.

Key areas

  • Accessioning, orders and clinical history
  • Structured, template-based reporting
  • Case assignment and workload distribution
  • Interoperability via HL7 / FHIR
Complete solution

LIS + Tracking

A unified pathology workflow from accessioning through diagnosis and archive.

One environment linking the diagnostic record with physical material.

Key areas

  • LIS and Tracking in a single environment
  • One record across the workflow
  • Supports digital pathology integration
  • Complete traceability from intake to archive

Start with Tracking today? Add LIS modules later as your laboratory needs evolve.

End-to-end orchestration

Your workflow, configured around your laboratory.

Configure stages, order, roles and rules around the way your laboratory works.

The Pathestra difference

Why pathology leaders choose Pathestra

Designed around the physical, digital and operational realities of pathology.

01Physical precision

Specimen-centric

Pathestra follows the physical material - specimen, cassette, block and slide - not only the case.

Keep the case connected to the physical material moving through the laboratory.
