Driving diagnostic certainty for life-changing decisions in pathology
Empowering transformation
Our comprehensive suite of products encompasses whole slide imaging, enterprise pathology software, artificial intelligence-based image analysis, and system integration.
Roche is dedicated to maintaining quality standards for solutions pathologists can trust. We believe that a digital pathology solution should include reliable hardware, user-centric workflow software, and computational pathology tools, with the latest in cybersecurity technology to protect patient and user data.
Roche Digital Pathology Dx (VENTANA DP 200), the VENTANA® DP 200 slide scanner in combination with Roche’s digital pathology workflow software and a monitor, is available in the United States to aid in clinical diagnosis, enabling pathologists to diagnose patients using digital images.
When you partner with Roche, you access a premier provider of digital pathology and clinical decision support applications with expertise in artificial intelligence (AI), pathology, and tissue diagnostics.

We offer a flexible, open ecosystem designed to fit seamlessly within your workflow and evolve with your lab’s digitisation needs.
We understand the transition to digital pathology comes with challenges, which is why we leverage our broad expertise to support you every step of the way. Whether it’s fundamental elements to kick-start your transformation or end-to-end digital solutions to scale-up the lab, we take an intentional approach to innovation. As a full-service partner, we help you achieve your vision for your lab’s digital journey, now and in the future.
Our vision for digital pathology and clinical decision support: True interoperability
Digital pathology is quickly evolving and requires an interoperable ecosystem that integrates with other data systems, tools, and platforms. Our vision is to make the tools you need available in one central environment for easy access to the latest in artificial intelligence (AI) pathology tools from Roche and our partners.
Our goal is to create an interoperable platform for pathologists to access these innovative tools, including our own expert-developed AI solutions and the solutions of our partners. Roche is committed to investing in, and shaping the future, of pathology and clinical decision support solutions to improve patient care.

Our job as histotechnologists is to provide quality images pathologists can confidently base their diagnoses on. Roche Digital Pathology gives me the tools to do that.
Roche has been instrumental in implementing digital pathology in our Pathology Department. Their support in the hardware set-up and maintenance is important as hospital engineers typically are not trained in this type of equipment.
Roche Digital Pathology helps us identify patients who can benefit from new immunotherapies. That's where Roche products definitely help us in precision diagnostics.
Precision medicine isn’t just about giving a drug to a particular patient; it’s about giving a specific diagnosis to that patient so they can get specific treatment. Roche Digital Pathology helps us to give precision diagnoses.
Digital pathology webinars: Unlock the future
Roche regularly hosts and sponsors webinars to share the latest in the fast-paced and growing field of Digital Pathology.
