Whole slide imaging from the phone in your pocket
SutureSlide turns any standard light microscope into a diagnostic-quality whole slide imaging system portable, affordable, and HIPAA-secure.
SutureSlide turns any standard light microscope into a diagnostic-quality whole slide imaging system portable, affordable, and HIPAA-secure.
No dedicated hardware to purchase. No IT department required. Just your microscope, your smartphone, and the SutureSlide system.
Attach the SutureSlide ocular adapter to your existing microscope eyepiece in under 30 seconds. Compatible with virtually any standard light microscope.
The SutureSlide mobile app guides you through a quick calibration using a standardized grid, verifying gyroscopic alignment and luminosity before scanning begins.
The optional Bluetooth Slide Displacement Unit (SliDU) and other equipment automatically traverses the slide, capturing frames with continuous auto-focus correction. No operator needed.
Images upload to the SutureSlide cloud, where our proprietary stitching algorithm assembles a diagnostic-quality WSI delivered to your phone in real time.
Share cases instantly with colleagues anywhere, collaborate in real-time multi-headed scope mode, or send encrypted de-identified consults to subspecialists.
Works with any modern iOS or Android device (≥12 MP). The phone you already own becomes a diagnostic imaging tool.
No C-mount required. The SutureSlide adapter mounts to the ocular of virtually any standard light microscope.
The optional SliDU automates scanning over Bluetooth, traversing the slide with stepper-motor precision. No operator needed.
Our stitching algorithm handles radial distortion correction, feature detection, bundle adjustment, and color calibration automatically.
End-to-end encrypted case sharing with time-limited, PIN-protected access tokens. De-identified consults and real-time conferencing.
Live collaborative viewing without pre-scanning replicate the traditional teaching microscope experience digitally, from anywhere.
Designed for the 90% of pathologists current WSI solutions have priced out and the places traditional scanners can never reach.
Rapid second opinions without shipping glass slides. Turnaround from days to under an hour.
Subspecialty pathology access for community hospitals that lack WSI infrastructure or budget.
Field-deployable, battery-independent WSI for forward operating bases and OCONUS facilities.
Digitize slide libraries at low cost. Teach pathology in hybrid and remote learning environments.
Present navigable, annotatable WSIs in real time across teams, buildings, or continents.
Sub-$1,500 total cost makes diagnostic WSI viable in low-resource settings for the first time.
Simplifying collaboration for pathologists,
in order to improve patient care.
We’re a small, founder-led team and we reply quickly. Whether you’re a pathologist, researcher, grant officer, or institution we’d love to talk.
