2.3.2 BD FocalPoint™ GS Review Station
The following sequence describes Phase 2 of the workflow. Figure 2-3 illustrates this sequence
as well.
1 All slides successfully processed on the BD FocalPoint™ Slide Profiler are initially evaluated
on the BD FocalPoint™ GS Review Station using the BD FocalPoint™ GS review
application.
2 Slide evaluation includes any of the following:
• FOV only
• FOV Review triaged to full slide review (FSR)
• Full slide review because no FOVs are presented (for example, Process Review or
incomplete processing)
In the US and Canada, Conventional Pap smears are not eligible for
Field of View (FOV) screening. Refer to Section 18 for a discussion
3 Abnormal slides are triaged to a pathologist.
4 Directed QC Review slides are triaged to a second manual full slide review.
5
Slides are assigned a result and final reports are sent to provider.
The cytotechnologist performs initial evaluation of the slides at the BD FocalPoint™ GS Review
Station using the BD FocalPoint™ GS review application. Two additional optional applications
are available: QC Mode and MD Mode. These applications electronically queue slides for QC or
Pathologist review and enable electronic review of slides at the BD FocalPoint™ GS Review
Station. Both applications are optional and use the BD FocalPoint™ GS Review Station for
evaluation. Figure 2-4 demonstrates the workflow using these three applications; GS Review,
QC Mode and MD Mode.
Figure 2-4 illustrates the workflow with the BD FocalPoint™ GS Review Station and Table 2-2
details the operating modes and their associated tasks.
