NEW YORK, NY & PHILADELPHIA, PA — New York Gastroenterology Associates, LLP is adopting artificial intelligence–driven pathology software from Proscia to modernize diagnostic workflows and position the practice for deeper participation in research and precision medicine.
The gastroenterology group said it has implemented Proscia’s Concentriq digital pathology platform in its in-house laboratory, replacing traditional microscope-based processes with data-rich, high-resolution imaging. The move is aimed at delivering faster, more consistent diagnostic results while creating a technology foundation that can support future research collaborations.
Digital pathology is gaining traction across medicine as advances in imaging and AI enable clinicians to analyze disease at a level of detail not possible with glass slides alone. What began as a push for efficiency is increasingly becoming a gateway to new insights, particularly in cancer and other complex conditions where subtle tissue changes can guide treatment decisions.
NYGA Chief Operating Officer David Hertz said gastroenterology is especially well suited for the transition, given the volume and diagnostic importance of biopsy samples. He said the practice selected Proscia for its ability to meet current clinical demands while supporting a longer-term strategy built around data, collaboration, and innovation.
Concentriq is used by both clinical laboratories and life sciences organizations, allowing NYGA to operate on a shared digital foundation with pharmaceutical and biotech partners. That interoperability is expected to help the practice expand its role in clinical trials and translational research, building on its existing involvement in studies aimed at advancing gastrointestinal care.
Proscia Chief Executive Officer David West said the partnership reflects a broader shift in pathology toward digital-first workflows that support precision medicine. He said NYGA’s adoption of Concentriq positions the group to help shape how gastrointestinal diseases are studied, diagnosed, and treated, while offering a model other specialty practices may follow.
As healthcare providers face rising demand for faster answers and more personalized care, NYGA’s move signals how specialty practices are turning to AI-enabled platforms not only to improve today’s diagnostics, but also to unlock new avenues for research and growth.
