Histopathology

Histopathology Laboratory Software

Our flagship LIMS solution. Comprehensive tissue tracking from specimen receipt through cassette processing, sectioning, staining, and digital slide integration to final diagnostic reporting.

Designed by Pathologists, for Pathologists

CoreLIMS was originally developed specifically for histopathology laboratories, with input from practicing pathologists and laboratory managers who understand the unique challenges of tissue diagnostics.

From the moment a specimen arrives in your laboratory to the final signed-out report, our system provides complete visibility and control over every step of the diagnostic process.

  • Complete specimen lifecycle from receipt to archival
  • SNOMED coding for standardised diagnostic classification
  • Digital pathology integration for remote diagnosis
  • Second opinion workflows built into the system
