The Orion tool combines molecular details revealed by immunofluorescence imaging (left) with structural information gained through traditional histology staining (middle) to create a new image (right) of a tumor sample. Pathologists can use the integrated image to delve deeper into the details of a tumor, with the ultimate goal of improving cancer diagnosis and treatment.
