Introduction

End-to-End Integrated AI Workflow at Fimlab
Consortia 1 (Aiforia, Philips, Software Point)
In this workshop, we demonstrate a seamless, end-to-end digital pathology workflow integrating three independent solutions.
In this workflow, whole slide images are scanned using Philips scanners, stored in the Philips IMS, and registered in the Software Point LabVantage Medical Suite (LVMS) LIS. Once scanning is complete, Aiforia is automatically notified, retrieves the images, and performs AI-based analysis.
Pathologists receive real-time status updates directly within LVMS. When the analysis is complete, cases are automatically prioritized and organized in the worklist based on preliminary AI results. With a single click and seamless Single Sign-On (SSO), pathologists can open cases in Aiforia Clinical Suite for review. After review and report confirmation, AI results are automatically transferred back to LVMS and incorporated into the patient report.
This fully integrated workflow is already in clinical diagnostic use at Fimlab, the largest laboratory in Finland.

Showcase Standards based Scanner-to-AI digital pathology workflow
Consortia 2 (Google, Leica Biosystems, PathQA)

Cases that route themselves: automating region-wide digital pathology through PACS, LIMS, and AI integration
Consortia 3 (Sectra, Hamamatsu, Software Point)
Region Skåne in Sweden has implemented a region-wide digital pathology solution built entirely on standards-based integrations, enabling a fully PACS-driven workflow in which pathologists perform all tasks directly from the image management system. Whole slide images are acquired on Hamamatsu scanners across four locations and imported via DICOM C-STORE into a centralized Sectra IMS. An HL7-based integration between Sectra IMS and Software Point LIMS ensures that case metadata flows seamlessly between systems, enabling them to do anything case assignment, creating additional orders and reporting, removing the need for pathologists to switch contexts during sign-out. Prostate biopsies are automatically routed to Paige/Tempus and breast cases to Visiopharm for processing, with results available already before the pathologist opens the case. The result is a highly automated workflow where AI-assisted analyses are available at the moment a case reaches the pathologist, demonstrating how open standards can scale digital pathology and AI across an entire region.
