Preclinical Pathology Services for Medical Devices

Gold Standard For Evaluating Medical Device Performance

Pathology helps manufacturers better understand how their device interacts and reacts to tissues and organs. Pathologists can detect potential risks and side effects early in the development process, allowing modifications to be made to the device itself or its materials. This stage of the process is extremely important to ensure that the device is ready to enter clinical trials.

NAMSA pathology labs are designed for high volume to meet and exceed all of your tissue and device collection requirements. We operate fully-equipped histopathology and SEM/TEM laboratories in our facilities to help meet a wide variety of preclinical testing needs.

The NAMSA pathology labs are operated by qualified histotechnicians and have Board-Certified pathologists who oversee gross necropsies, interpret histopathology slides, and write reports evaluating the safety of products. The labs also have advanced equipment for the precise sectioning of all medical devices, using paraffin, plastic thin microtomy, laser microtome systems and plastic EXAKT ground sectioning.
