As a spatial biology specialist, Propath understands the challenges of producing reliable and reproducible data from complex images.
Propath's service for image analysis integrates image management, quantitative quality assessment, spatial phenotyping, and biologically grounded reporting within a validated, reproducible workflow.
Combining advanced analytics with domain expertise, Propath enables sponsors to extract clear, reproducible meaning from complex tissue data, translating images to impact.

Propath's image management service provides data storage and transfer, image viewing and collaboration tools with no downloads required. Supporting a wide range of image formats and stacking of multiple imaging modalities, analysis overlays and tools for annotation, ensure data is securely accessible on demand.

T-cell to macrophage nearest neighbour analysis
Propath's platform for quantitative image analysis and bioinformatics has been designed and validated to be fit-for-purpose for use on clinical trial data.
Our controlled environment ensures analyses are conducted according to the principles of informed consent, data integrity, confidentiality and scientific rigour to maintain GCP compliance from sample receipt to data delivery.
Whether sponsors enter our pathway with their own images or Propath generated images, Propath seamlessly translates qualitative images into quantitative data for statistical analysis and visualisation. In collaboration with pathologists or subject matter experts, algorithms are trained to extract and quantify features, providing robust and reproducible results.

Our experience across a range of platforms for spatial biology allows us to recommend the most appropriate platform for each research project.
We understand the strengths and limitations of each platform – and how to get the best out of them.










We can analyse a wide range of image types. Our image analysis software is platform agnostic, meaning that we can extract features from histology stains up to 100plex multispectral/imaging mass cytometry images.
We can extract a range of quantitative data, including cell counts, biomarker expression levels, orphological measurements, and spatial relationships between cells. If you can see it, we should be able to measure it.
We offer comprehensive support, including a consultation with our experts, detailed reports, and assistance with data interpretation and visualisation.
The turnaround time depends upon the complexity and volume of the images submitted. Generally, standard analyses are completed within 2-3 weeks, whilst more complex projects may take longer. We will provide an updated estimation upon project initialisation.
Absolutely. We understand that no project is the same and therefore offer bespoke analysis packages tailored to your specific requirements. Our data analysis team is here to discuss your questions and provide advice on how best to ensure the analysis meets your objectives.
Yes, we can assist with the analysis of images from another CRO. Whether you need help with the initial feature extraction or require support in the downstream analysis, our team of experts is here to provide guidance to make the most out of every pixel.
