HELIOS SOFTWARE HIGHLIGHTS
The HELIOS processor is capable of performing all IFA processing and reading automatically.
The HELIOS uses the robust and widely adopted HELMED IFA Software, which is compatible with most IFA test kits, regardless of their manufacturer. However, non-AESKU slides will be processed without reading.
This module starts automatically after slide processing is complete or can be used independently from other modules. The well imaging positions and image number is user configurable for all AESKUSLIDES tests, prior to reading. A Pre-Classification suggestion ( + or – ) is performed for each image for AESKUSLIDES ANA HEp2, ANCA, and nDNA.
All IFA analysis data can be loaded and evaluated patient by patient. The evaluation process is complemented by the AESKU pattern library. The “show all negatives” option displays all pre-classified negative results, helping to save reporting time by automatically releasing the negative results with the push of a button. The “sample overview” option allows all results related to one sample to be compared side by side. Activating the pattern recognition tool give the Helios the ability to autonomously suggest the most probable IFA patterns for Hep-2, ANCA, and nDNA.
This module is used to manage pre-classification settings and user rights.
The LIS Module sends all classified results to the LIS. ASTM standard connection configuration is done via a user-friendly interface.
