For the past 150 years, pathologists have been inspecting tissue visually under a light microscope to diagnose and grade cancer. This process is subjective--for many cancers, pathologists only agree with each other about 50% of the time.

We tap into that digital data, and use computers to automate and quantify modern pathology workflows.

Xealth enables healthcare teams to order digital content and services as easily as they do medications today. Patients can then access these digital health prescriptions from the provider's portal, so that they can actively manage their health.
