Digital and Computational Pathology are innovating anatomic pathology and are predicted to become fundamental to its practice. Through digitization of the traditional glass slide, as well as the application of modern artificial intelligence to those images, digital pathology promises to provide myriad benefits including better patient care, an improved experience for pathologists, enhanced laboratory efficiency, and institutional advantages around workforce recruiting and research and education. However, there are clear challenges to implementing digital pathology and applying computational pathology.  

In this webinar, we’ll discuss the current state, trends and challenges in this rapidly changing intersection of medicine and technology. 

Attendees Will Learn: 

• The difference between digital pathology and computational pathology. 

• The major benefits of adopting digital pathology. 

• The barriers to adopting digital pathology. 

• The current state of artificial intelligence in Anatomic Pathology.
