KUBTEC® Launches PICASSO® Plus: The Next Generation of Specimen Imaging for the Pathology Lab

STRATFORD, Conn., Feb. 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — KUBTEC®, a global leader in pathology specimen imaging technology, has proudly launched The PICASSO® Plus Specimen Radiography System, their latest innovation aimed at further improving efficiency in the pathology lab.

The PICASSO® Plus System is the only specimen imaging system designed for the pathology lab that utilizes Amorphous Selenium Direct Capture Technology, the same technology that is used best in class mammography systems. It is also equipped with a wide range of proprietary workflow management features such as the highly acclaimed Image Blender, which utilizes Dual Specimen Imaging, combining X-ray and optical images, to help Pathologists’ Assistants quickly locate surgical clips, margins and microcalifications. 

A special launch event at KUBTEC headquarters in Stratford CT was attended by Paul S. Lavoie, Chief Manufacturing Officer of the State of Connecticut. At the ribbon-cutting ceremony Mr. Lavoie shared a few words:

This is absolutely amazing, groundbreaking work, and it’s been done here in Connecticut. We have the most advanced and innovative workforce in the nation. Congratulations KUBTEC on your latest product development, which is incredibly significant [for healthcare].”

Vikram Butani, CEO of KUBTEC®, shared the vision that led to the launch of the PICASSO® Plus System:

Amorphous Selenium Direct Capture Technology is the gold standard for diagnostic mammography. With the latest PICASSO® Plus System, we complete the chain, bringing Amorphous Selenium from Mammography to the OR and now to Pathology. The high-quality images used to diagnose breast cancer will now also be used to help analyze breast tissue in the pathology lab.”

Other advancements in The PICASSO® Plus System include voice command, an innovative speech recognition technology for hands-free navigation. The system also comes with the Pablo® tablet, allowing convenient access to images and annotation tools anywhere in the pathology lab, helping ensure a smooth transition to the grossing station and beyond. The Pablo® tablet also features voice and gesture commands for a complete touch-free experience.
