Register now – June 26, 2025 PACE / State of FLThis webinar explores how artificial intelligence (AI) and digital pathology have the potential to revolutionize the clinical laboratory landscape. These technologies are transforming traditional laboratory practices by introducing advanced tools that enhance diagnostic and analytical capabilities. Digital pathology involves the digitization of pathology slides, allowing for more efficient storage, sharing, and analysis. AI, on the other hand, leverages machine learning algorithms to analyze complex data, providing faster and more accurate results. Together, they are setting new standards for precision diagnostics, early disease detection, and personalized medicine.
