About Pramana

Pramana is a digital pathology company that has developed what it calls Digital Pathology 2.0 - a generational advancement in whole slide imaging technology. The company's flagship products are the Spectral family of scanners, which feature autonomous operation capable of handling most slide types without user intervention, including challenging specimens. Pramana's innovative approach separates slide handling mechanisms from scan heads, offering modular and scalable solutions that allow labs to customize their setup and quickly upgrade capacity as needs grow. The technology is built on a pioneering volumetric imaging method that replicates the fine-focus function of optical microscopes, backed by a portfolio of granted U.S. patents. Key differentiators include built-in inline quality assurance with fully autonomous rescanning, edge AI capability to execute multiple feature description algorithms in real time during scanning, and compatibility with diverse specimen types including tissue biopsies, cytology samples, bone marrow, microbiology slides, and wet mounts. The company addresses critical pain points in traditional digital pathology including high manual quality control burden, underutilized scanner capacity, and slow cloud-based image analysis. In August 2024, Pramana was acquired by Evident (formerly Olympus Scientific Solutions), expanding Evident's digital pathology portfolio. The company's solutions are designed for anatomic pathology, cytopathology, hematopathology, clinical pathology, and microbiology applications, serving healthcare organizations and research institutions globally.
