DIGITAL PATHOLOGY

Pathology is a medical specialty that focuses on determining the cause and nature of diseases. The pathologist identifies diseases by examining biological cells and tissues of the patient, typically based on images from histology slides observed through a microscope.

Pathology is an essential step in diagnostics of cancer. As our world’s population ages, more people face this deadly and costly disease. The need for more diagnostics is increasing, but the number of pathologists isn’t. it takes many years to become a trained pathologist, and workload is increasing fast. In fact, the pathology industry faces various major challenges:

THE CHALLENGES IN PATHOLOGY

Deal with Increased Number of Cases

Provide Faster Diagnoses

Improve Patient Satisfaction

Manage Cost of Care

Increasing the number of pathologists is not the answer to these challenges but changing ways of working is. The pathologist requires improved tools and workflow to manage the challenges ahead. Developments in technology over the last decade such as big data storage, handling and analysis, image digitalization and diagnostics automation have been essential developments that help support pathologists.
