The platform features an enhanced user experience and end-to-end breast workflow with automated H&E analysis and "zero-click" IHC quantification, supporting more efficient and accurate scoring of HER2, ER, PR and Ki67

BOSTON: Ibex Medical Analytics (Ibex), the global leader in clinical-grade AI-powered pathology, today announced the launch of Ibex 4, its next-generation platform. Built on Ibex’s clinically validated algorithms1-10 and developed in close collaboration with the world’s leading pathology labs, Ibex 4 is designed to transform the diagnostic journey, delivering unprecedented value to pathologists, laboratories, and patients.

As pathology departments worldwide face rising case volumes and increasing diagnostic complexity, Ibex 4 provides a future-ready solution that alleviates these pressures. “Ibex 4 was designed to help pathologists 'see more and click less,' focusing their expertise where it matters most,” said Chaim Linhart, CTO at Ibex Medical Analytics. “One example is Ibex Breast’s “zero-click” IHC quantification and visualization tools, which are particularly useful in identifying a few stained cells and very low levels of HER2 expression, as well as quickly calculating Ki67 proliferation index. Ibex is empowering pathologists to overcome interobserver variability and ensure every patient receives the most precise diagnostic results and insights.”

A Complete Breast Solution: From H&E to IHC

Central to the Ibex 4 release is the expansion of the Ibex Breast offering. The platform now supports an end-to-end diagnostic workflow for biopsies and excisions. Ibex Lymph Node, first available for research use, will be available soon.

• H&E Optimization: Ibex Breast detects >50 tissue morphologies, supporting more accurate and efficient diagnosis. By pre-screening for invasive cancer and DCIS, the platform can pre-order IHCs to optimize lab workflows.
• “Zero-Click” IHC Scoring: The platform automatically identifies invasive cancer areas and quantifies HER2, ER, PR, and Ki67 stained cells. Pathologists supported by Ibex Breast HER2 showed improved HER2 scoring accuracy and consistency, as demonstrated by an early evidence program across 14 international reference laboratories and cancer centers.8 An additional multi-center study will be presented at USCAP 2026, demonstrating that Ibex Breast ER, PR, and Ki67 bolster scoring precision and interobserver concordance.10
• Precision Medicine Support: Ibex Breast enhances support for borderline and low HER2 expression identification. A new and specialized feature assists pathologists in the detection and interpretation of cases with HER2 ultralow expression by enhancing visualization of cell staining, a time-consuming task known for high subjectivity. As demonstrated in a recent study presented at San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium 2025, Ibex AI helped identify 57% more patients potentially eligible for targeted therapy by correcting over half of false HER2 0 (null) classifications to HER2 Ultralow or 1+.8 Ibex AI also aided in reducing equivocal scoring and reliance on additional testing (FISH).8

Streamlined Workflow & Increased Efficiency

Ibex 4 introduces a sophisticated user interface, customized reporting, and advanced workflow integrations that increase efficiency:

• Prioritized Insights & Visualization: High-likelihood findings are automatically surfaced to the top of the worklist and coupled with Ibex’s trademark heatmaps and a new points of interest (POI) gallery, rapidly guiding pathologists to critical tissue areas for faster, more accurate confirmation.
• Proven Prostate & Gastric Support: Ibex 4 continues to power market-leading solutions for prostate and gastric cancer, ensuring efficiency across the lab’s highest-volume case types. New Ibex Prostate indications include support for cribriform patterns, Transurethral Resection of the Prostate (TURP) and Lumea BxChip.
• Customized Reporting: AI-powered automation enables efficient case reporting via LIS integration, saving pathologist time and enabling focus on diagnosis while reducing administrative tasks.
• Partnerships & Integrations: Recognizing the importance of seamless lab workflows, Ibex continues to partner with industry leaders on LIS and IMS integrations that make it easier than ever for pathologists to incorporate the AI technology into daily practice.

Ibex Medical Analytics remains at the forefront of AI-driven pathology, continuously evolving to meet the needs of pathologists and improve patient outcomes. The company recently announced expansion of its biopharma business, extending the AI-powered product offering into biomarker development. Ibex is proud to share these new advancements and looks forward to further innovation.

Information on Ibex 4 and live demos will be available at the 115th USCAP Annual Meeting in San Antonio, TX, USA, between March 21-26 (Ibex Medical Analytics – booth number 231).
