Digital Pathology – What is it? A Value Proposition for Laboratories, Hospitals and Health Networks
This presentation is geared toward healthcare institution and laboratory administrators and pathologists. It will give a brief overview of the basics of digital pathology and its many uses in the pathology laboratory. Digital pathology’s role in teleconsultation, case archiving, quality assurance, and education will be discussed. The rapidly developing field of artificial intelligence will drive pathologist acceptance of this technology as case prescreening, automated triage, and risk and diagnostic assessments come on-line in the near future.
