Ibex Prostate

AI-powered cancer detection and Gleason grading for prostate biopsy diagnosis with clinical-grade accuracy.

Overview

Ibex Prostate is a clinical-grade, AI-powered pathology solution designed to assist pathologists in the detection and grading of prostate cancer. Prostate cancer is among the most common malignant diseases in men worldwide, with more than one million new cases diagnosed each year, and accurate, timely diagnosis is critical for guiding treatment decisions and improving survival rates. Ibex Prostate addresses the core challenges of prostate biopsy analysis — including increasing case volumes, subjectivity in Gleason grading, small tumor sizes, and large numbers of tissue cores per case — by providing intelligent, automated support throughout the diagnostic workflow.

Deployed in multiple digital pathology workflows and used by pathologists in everyday clinical practice at leading health systems and diagnostic providers worldwide, Ibex Prostate delivers clinical-grade accuracy alongside meaningful gains in productivity and turnaround time.
