Clarapath has developed the SectionStar, an innovative automated tissue sectioning and transfer system designed to enhance the efficiency and quality of pathology labs. This technology standardizes the slide output, significantly reducing variability and errors associated with manual sectioning processes. By consistently producing tissue sections of 3-5 microns in thickness, SectionStar improves the reliability of slide quality, which is crucial for accurate diagnostics. The system eliminates the need for a water bath, thereby reducing contamination risks and preventing common issues such as tearing and folding of samples. Additionally, the environmentally controlled unit minimizes external variables that could affect the quality of the slides.

The SectionStar also integrates advanced optics systems that ensure a complete chain of custody and quality assurance for samples. This technology not only enhances the consistency of slide preparation but also supports the development of digital pathology and AI-driven diagnostic methodologies. By enabling batch processing and allowing a single operator to manage multiple machines, SectionStar increases lab throughput and reduces costs per slide. Overall, Clarapath's focus on automation and quality control positions it as a leader in modernizing pathology workflows, ultimately contributing to improved patient care and operational efficiency in histology labs.
