OracleBio, a global leader in high precision, quantitative digital image analysis services, is pleased to announce an expansion of its software capabilities to include Visiopharm Oncotopix®. Produced by Denmark-based Visiopharm, Oncotopix® software is an advanced platform for computer assisted quantification of immunohistochemistry (IHC) and In-Situ Hybridization (ISH) staining. Oncotopix offers a portfolio of software modules designed for application within cancer diagnostics and for scientists within cancer research and drug development.

Lorcan Sherry, Chief Scientific Officer of OracleBio commented:

‘It is important that OracleBio continues to develop and deliver highly innovative histology image analysis services to support our Client’s pre-clinical and clinical R&D. Visiopharm Oncotopix is highly interactive and infinitely programmable, allowing OracleBio to custom configure image analysis requirements and define new algorithms to meet Clients’ specific requirements.’

Whilst Visiopharm offers a range of different solutions for digital pathology, the Oncotopix platform in particular will strengthen OracleBio’s Immuno-Oncology service offering. The software provides key features that support oncology research, such as virtual multiplexing, and is a powerful tool for advanced co-localisation studies and tumor detection.

Lars Pedersen, Director of Sales at Visiopharm, commented:

“Visiopharm is proud to include OracleBio in our growing base of pre-clinical and clinical CRO clients. The Oncotopix® solution that OracleBio has chosen is designed to match the increasing demand for high quality tissue-based biomarker analysis, shorter turn-around times and flexibility, and we are proud to fuel OracleBio in their ambitions to deliver innovative expert histopathology results with our proprietary solution for in vitro diagnostic applications.”

Along with OracleBio’s current analysis platform capabilities the addition of Visiopharm Oncotopix will further enhance the company’s service capabilities and puts OracleBio in the unique position of being a multi-image analysis platform service provider.
