SCOPE SAVAHCS Histology Department utilizes the Roche Vantage Workflow System for bar-code tracking of patient specimens as they are processed from receipt in the Lab through production of diagnostic microscope slides containing stained tissue. At accessioning, bar-coded labels are produced for specimen containers and submission paperwork. The specimen bar-code label is scanned to produce bar-coded specimen cassettes which are used to contain the specimen during tissue processing. After tissue processing and specimen embedding, the tissue is cut into very thin sections for placement onto glass microscope slides. Labels for the slides are produced by scanning the cassette which contained the tissue specimen. After staining of the tissue on the slide, the bar-code is scanned to document that the process is completed and the slides are ready for the pathologist to view for diagnosis. The Vantage Workflow System is vital to eliminate the possibility of human error during this process. The Vantage Software maintenance updates and any needed repairs are supplied only by Roche Diagnostics Corporation and administered through the Laboratory ADPAC. QTY: 1 year of MAINTENANCE AND UPDATES OF VANTAGE WORKFLOW SYSTEM SOFTWARE DURING SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE The Vantage Software maintenance updates and any needed repairs are supplied only by Roche Diagnostics Corporation and administered through the Laboratory ADPAC.
