cITology

Citology develops cIToStack, a patented technology for digitizing liquid cytology samples. It autofocuses on individual cells and applies lossless compression to cytology scans, reducing whole slide image data size while keeping cell data intact. The solution is vendor-neutral and is designed to work with currently available digital scanners, starting with non-gynaecological cytology.

The product is presented to pathology and cytology laboratories. The website does not describe pricing or the revenue model. The company states that it is currently fundraising.
