Pathology in the digital age: Clínica Universidad de Navarra's success with Barco, Roche and Ibex

Pamplona, Spain · 2025

The Clínica Universidad de Navarra is a leading Spanish university hospital with campuses in Pamplona and Madrid. The hospital offers comprehensive medical services, with a particular focus on oncological pathology. The Department of Anatomical Pathology at Clínica Universidad de Navarra is staffed by a multidisciplinary team of pathologists, technicians, and biologists who work together to provide qualitative patient care.

Key benefits:

  • Comfortable screen size
  • Excellent image quality, color definition and contrast
  • Smooth image transition and less visual fatigue

Context

In 2020, the Clínica Universidad de Navarra in Spain embarked on a transition to digital pathology to enhance diagnostic accuracy and efficiency. The shift required the integration of high-quality imaging solutions capable of handling the complexities of oncological pathology, as well as future-proofing their operations by introducing AI support.

Challenge

For the image visualization and diagnostics part of their transition to digital pathology, the hospital wanted to work with excellent image quality, facilitate collaboration between campuses, and support the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms for improved diagnostic workflows.

Solution

As an ultra-high definition medical-grade display designed exclusively for digital pathology, our MDPC-8127 monitor offers 8MP image quality, a color space adjusted to pathology work, a comfortable screen size, and regulatory clearances for primary diagnosis.

The MDPC-8127 provides exceptional image clarity and color accuracy, which are crucial for our diagnostic work. I thought that the 27” size, which is smaller than other monitors on the market, would be a handicap. But thanks to the high resolution, it is actually very comfortable to work with this display size. And it easily fits on my desk without taking up too much space.

The integration of Barco displays was combined with the implementation of viewer software by Roche and AI algorithms developed by Ibex.

Results

The implementation of Barco's MDPC-8127 displays combined withe the Roche and Ibex solutions has yielded significant benefits for Clínica Universidad de Navarra’s Department of Anatomical Pathology, equipping them for an efficient and innovative future and ensuring that they can keep offering top-tier patient care.

This collaboration allows us to do our work in a high-quality, efficient environment, adapted to current needs. It has allowed us to incorporate technologies to be prepared for the challenges and opportunities that may arise in the future in the field of digital pathology.
