VistaPath Sentinel Reviews

VistaPath Sentinel Description

The Sentinel system incorporates the sample container and cassette to capture an image of both the tissue and the label on the container. It continuously monitors the usage of containers and cassettes to prevent any potential mix-ups of specimens. During the transfer of tissue into the cassette, the Sentinel efficiently identifies, measures, and photographs each tissue piece. A gross report is automatically generated using the laboratory's specific template, which the technician reviews and subsequently adds to the patient’s records. In less than a second, the Sentinel precisely locates, measures, and images the tissue as it is placed into the cassette. Its measurements are notably more accurate and reliable compared to those taken manually by technicians. Additionally, the system produces visually appealing, full-color reports that include a gross description, details of the patient and clinician, as well as images of the container, its label, and the cassette itself, ensuring comprehensive documentation of the specimens. This advanced technology enhances the overall efficiency and accuracy of the specimen handling process.
