Deep Bio Partners with Morphle Labs for Digital Pathology Image Analysis

SEOUL, South Korea, Oct. 27, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Deep Bio, a pioneer in medical AI specialized for cancer diagnostics, announced a strategic relationship with a leading slide scanner manufacturer and digital pathology systems provider, Morphle Labs. The partnership aims to provide pathologists access to a series of AI-based prostate-specific tissue image analysis solutions. The bundled product will bring digital pathology and AI at affordable price points.

With this partnership, Deep Bio's deep learning-based prostate cancer diagnosis support software DeepDx® Prostate will now be available to pathologists through Morphle Lab's digital pathology platform. As Morphle Labs offers state-of-the-art scanners at a fraction of the cost compared to traditional, high-volume scanners, the collaboration is expected to accelerate the rate of digital pathology adoption and enable access to the latest AI technologies in cancer diagnoses across the globe.

"One of the major problems in today's pathology is the decreasing number of pathologists worldwide. AI-powered cancer diagnostics can help fill the gap by empowering laboratories and hospitals with pathologist-level diagnosis and faster turnaround times. Joining forces with India's leading scanner and digital pathology platform provider, our AI software will be accessible to a broader user base, especially in developing countries. At the same time, I believe Morphle Labs will be a strong business partner for our entry into the Indian market," said Sun Woo Kim, the CEO and founder of Deep Bio.

"DeepDx® is a natural fit on top of Morphle's CLIA friendly remote microscopy workflow deployed across India and USA. We have observed latent demand from uropathology practices of all sizes across the globe. With this partnership, we are super-excited to offer this comprehensive solution going ahead for uropathologists" commented Rohit Hiwale, the CEO and founder of Morphle Labs.
