SlideMaster is an advanced digital slide conversion tool designed to facilitate interoperability between different whole-slide imaging formats. It enables seamless integration between 3DHISTECH’s proprietary MRXS format and third-party slide formats, ensuring compatibility across different digital pathology platforms. By automating format conversions, directory monitoring and annotation handling, this ensures that laboratories and institutions using multiple scanning platforms can efficiently manage – exchange, store and retrieve, and analyze slides without compatibility concerns.
Key features
Interoperability Across Platforms
Converts slides between MRXS and widely used formats such as Leica/Aperio SVS, Roche TIFF, WS DICOM, and more.
Automated Workflow Integration
Monitors specified directories for newly scanned slides, automatically uploads them to SlideCenter, and performs conversion with minimal user intervention.
Annotation Support
Exports annotations from SlideViewer (formerly CaseViewer) to supported formats, ensuring critical diagnostic information remains intact.
Efficient CPU Core Management
Allows users to control the number and priority of CPU cores used for conversions, optimizing system performance.
Bi-Directional Slide Exchange
Supports both uploading and downloading of slides to/from SlideCenter, ensuring smooth data transfer across platforms.
Additional features
Conversion Capabilities
SlideMaster supports extensive slide format conversions, both from MRXS to other formats and from third-party formats to MRXS.
