Insights on digital pathology technology and infrastructure
Four non-negotiables when buying an Image Management System for multiplexed immunofluorescence: real 16-bit, what-you-see-is-what-you-get histograms and pixel readouts, million-cell overlays, and storage plus data transfer that does not bankrupt you.
Slash-m GmbH is focusing on cytario by phasing out custom consulting services.
Every digital-pathology SaaS that touches your storage reaches it under a single shared identity — except cytario. Per-user OIDC federation means your storage audit log shows the actual end user on every read.
How cytario renders cell overlays directly in the browser using DuckDB-WASM, Parquet files, and GPU acceleration—no tile servers required.
How digital pathology viewing evolved through three architectural paradigms over 30 years, from satellite imaging technology to pure browser-based rendering, and why the breakthrough finally happened in 2022.
Understanding OpenID Connect (OIDC) and why it's critical for breaking vendor lock-in and enabling true interoperability in digital pathology systems.
Understanding the crucial difference between Object Storage and Block Storage, and why it matters for digital pathology infrastructure and cost management.
