PDF documents for pathologists

Merging histology reports and biopsy records

Histological examination produces specimen descriptions, classifications (WHO grading), and immunohistochemical results. Merge the macroscopic description, the microscopic findings, and the conclusion into one integrated histology report per specimen. Use the split function to provide the conclusion separately to the requesting physician.

Bundling cytology reports and smear assessments

Cytological examination includes PAP smears, fine-needle aspiration biopsies (FNAB), and bronchoalveolar lavage preparations. Bundle all cytology reports for one patient per examination type into one cytology file. Compress the file for secure archiving in the LIMS.

Organising autopsy reports and forensic findings

Autopsy reports are legally sensitive documents with external consequences (insurance, justice, inheritance). Merge the clinicopathological autopsy report, the toxicology results, and the histological findings into one integrated autopsy file. Password-protect the file for secure transfer to the public prosecutor or the next of kin.

Managing molecular pathology results

Molecular pathology includes NGS (next-generation sequencing), FISH analyses, and PCR results on tumour tissue. Bundle the tissue report, the NGS result, and the treatment recommendation into one molecular pathology file per tumour entity. Split the file to report the treatment-relevant biomarkers separately to the oncologist.

Processing sensitive pathology data in a privacy-safe way

Pathology reports contain diagnoses of cancer, infectious diseases, and genetic disorders. PDFrust processes all documents locally — no cloud upload. Password-protect pathology reports when sending them outside the laboratory.
