 You can read more about our philosophy regarding the support of vendor-specific file format [[https://www.prweb.com/releases/pathomation_announces_the_support_for_five_new_digital_pathology_file_formats_including_philips_isyntax/prweb17933169.htm|in our press release]].
+An introduction discussing the file format //issue// in digital pathology is available through the [[https://www.digitalpathologytoday.com/episodes/s2e17|Digital Pathology Today podcast]].
+==== Grossing and macroscopic ====
+{{::format_macro_gross.png?nolink&200 |}}
+Gross processing or "grossing" is the process by which pathology specimens undergo examination with the bare eye to obtain diagnostic information, as well as cutting and tissue sampling in order to prepare material for subsequent microscopic examination. ([[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gross_processing|Wikipedia]])
+In order to provide a reference and link between macroscopic and microscopic samples, a //regular// photograph is often taken from a specimen before it is [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Histology#Sample_preparation|further processed]].
+PMA.core supports [[https://www.pathomation.com/formats|common file formats like JPG, JPEG, JP2, TIFF, TIF, PNG, and others]] to support this kind of observations and incorporate them seamlessly in digital pathology applications and workflows.

-DAPI, Cy3, Cy5, ... If these terms sound familiar, changed are you're engaged in fluorescent microscopy. We've been working with many vendors throughout the years to optimally support this imaging type. You can toggle individual channels directly in PMA.core, and do histogram clipping as you see fit. Advanced downstream application (that run on top of PMA.core) like [[https://www.pathomation.com/pma.studio|PMA.studio]] can even visualize the histogram of each channel for you, and apply additional per-channel gamma correction.

 Here's a example: instead of letting a pathologist write a report in which he says that the patient's tissue shows signs of abnormally proliferating cell groups, you let him or her fill out a form with a checkbox for "TumorTissuePresent".
-PMA.core supports this kind of data capture and the ability to generate forms. For more information, see the [[forms|specific section on the subject in this wiki]].

 Of course PMA.core isn't the only tool in the world that can do this. We acknowledge that by providing various options to integrate external meta-data into PMA.core as well. For more information on that subject, we refer to [[https://realdata.pathomation.com/how-to-handle-slide-meta-data/|our blog article]].

 No matter how extended we make these list interfaces however, there's going to be a time where you think "well, if I only could re-format it like _this_, of if I could just send it off to _that_ lady...
-Most views in PMA.core therefore have an Excel export button in the top-right corner that allow you to export the current data as list. Go ahead and try it, and if you don't find what you're looking for, [[let us know|https://www.pathomation.com/contact]] so we can incorporate it in the next version (no promises; we'll still have to evaluate the extend to which your request would be a useful feature to have for our entire user base).
