The team is using OpenSlide, a vendor-neutral C library, to extend the software of caMicroscope, a digital pathology server. The extended software will support some of the common formats adopted by whole slide vendors as well as basic image analysis algorithms. With the incorporation of common whole slide formats, caMicroscope will be able to read whole slides without recoding, which often introduces additional compression artifacts, and provide a logical bridge from proprietary pathology formats to DICOM standards.

Image markups and annotations also require standards so that they can be read by different imaging disciplines along with the rest of the image data. Support for the μ-AIM model will be added to caMicroscope so that researchers can include image annotation and markup features in digital pathology data.
