About the Virtuoso Software

Welcome to the Virtuoso software, a comprehensive web-based pathology solution for viewing, managing, and sharing digitized

glass slides.

Who Should Read this Guide

Histotechnicians and Pathologists should read this user guide and use it for reference while using the Virtuoso software.

Intended Use for Virtuoso Software

The Virtuoso software is a web based pathology solution for viewing, managing and sharing digital glass slides. Virtuoso is an accessory

to iScan systems and allows interfacing with stain scoring and interpretation software algorithms.

NOTE: Images in the Virtuoso Reference Guide are illustrative only and are shown for general training purposes. Please see

the individual stainer user guides for performance characteristics for staining systems that are available for clinical

use.

Related Software

When operating the Virtuoso software without a interface to a laboratory information system, there is an optional module to

manage cases, patients, clients, physicians, and users that appear and are used within the Virtuoso software. This module is the

Virtuoso Simple Laboratory Information System, or SLIS. If using the Virtuoso SLIS module, see “1: SLIS Software Basic

Procedures” on page 3 for more information.

1: SLIS Software Basic Procedures

The Simple Laboratory Information System, or SLIS, is a functional module to manage cases, patients, clients, physicians, and

users that appear and are used within the Virtuoso software. The SLIS software is used to manage the Virtuoso software when there

is no interface with a laboratory information system.

Opening the SLIS Software

1. Open a supported Internet browser.

2. Type your SLIS URL (uniform resource locator, or web address) in the Address Bar.

For example: https://<host name>/:8080/slis. Where <host name> is the name of the machine on which the SLIS application

server is installed.

3. Press Enter.

The SLIS software is opened in your browser.

Logging into SLIS

1. In the SLIS Login Screen: Enter your User ID and Password.

2. Click the Login button. The SLIS home page is opened.

After logging into the SLIS software, do not use the browser Back button or the

Backspace key to navigate between windows or views.

Case Workflow

Required field. Select a workflow type from the drop-down menu.

Integrated View (Treating MD) - Indicates that the lab performs both slide

preparation and diagnosis of the specimen submitted by the treating physician.

Integrated View (Client) - Indicates that the lab performs both slide

preparation and diagnosis of the specimen submitted by the pathologist from an

external lab.

TechView361 - Indicates that the lab performs the slide preparation only of the

specimen submitted by a pathologist from an external lab. The pathologist

performs the diagnosis with the aid of computer-assisted quantitative image

analysis.

TechView342 - Indicates that the lab performs the slide preparation only of the

specimen submitted by a pathologist from an external lab. The pathologist

performs the diagnosis and gives a manual score of the slide.

NOTE: Some fields displayed in this section depend on the chosen workflow

type. In addition, some fields are pre-populated based on existing

information.

Client Name

If the case workflow type is either Integrated View (Client), TechView361, or

TechView342, the client is the external pathology lab associated with the

pathologist submitting the specimen.

Type in the client name. As you type, the system displays a likely match from

the existing list of existing clients. If the correct client name is displayed, select

the name from the list with a single mouse click.

NOTE: To create a new client, click the Create Client button.

Delete a Case

Deleting a case in SLIS deletes the case in the Virtuoso software, but only if all specimens on the case have NOT been released in

the Virtuoso software. If this condition is met, then the case is deleted from the Virtuoso software.

You can also completely remove a case in the Virtuoso software even if it has a specimen already released, for example, if you have

some test cases that you need to delete prior to going into production. Or you may have entered the wrong data on a case and just

want to completely start over again and re-use the accession number.

CAUTION: The case is completely removed from both SLIS and the Virtuoso software. The delete is recorded in

the audit log including date, time stamp and user who did the deletion.

1. From within the Cases window, select an existing case from the Case List pane (see Figure 1-23).

Figure 1-23. Select an Existing Case.

2. Select the Delete button from the SLIS tool bar to delete the case (see Figure 1-24).
