PathAI will exclusively work with Roche Tissue Diagnostics (RTD) to develop artificial intelligence (AI) digital pathology algorithms for RTD’s companion diagnostics business
Roche announced that it has entered into an agreement with PathAI, a global leader in artificial intelligence (AI)-powered technology for pathology.
Under the terms of this agreement, PathAI will exclusively work with Roche Tissue Diagnostics (RTD) to develop AI-enabled digital pathology algorithms in the companion diagnostics space. RTD will work exclusively with PathAI for a pre-specified term as the sole external algorithm development company for AI-powered companion diagnostics, while retaining the ability to continue to develop its own algorithms for companion diagnostics. PathAI will retain the ability to freely develop algorithms outside of companion diagnostics.

“This collaboration with Roche is a testament to our shared commitment to advancing the field of digital pathology and AI-enabled diagnostics for both drug development and clinical care,” said Dr. Andy Beck, CEO and Co-Founder of PathAI. “High medical value diagnostic products with seamless integration into the laboratory workflow will accelerate the transition to digital pathology as the standard to aid clinicians in diagnosis and biomarker characterisation.”
Under a previous agreement from October of 2021, the companies jointly developed an embedded image analysis workflow for pathologists. This workflow allows PathAI image analysis algorithms to be accessed within Roche’s navify® Digital Pathology software platform. PathAI algorithms were the first to be fully integrated into the Roche Open Environment.
