“DIGITAL PATHOLOGY HAS TRULY REVOLUTIONIZED THE WAY WE PRACTICE. IT HAS ALLOWED ME TO HAVE A QUICKER TURNAROUND TIME ON CONSULTS AND ENHANCED PRODUCTIVITY. AND IT GIVES ME MORE ACCURATE ANNOTATION OF DISTANCE OF THE MARGIN TO THE CANCER AND SIZE OF THE CANCER.”

Almost four years ago, Mayo Clinic launched the Digital Pathology Program, a major pathology initiative. Phase 2 of this multi-phase rollout has recently been completed, which involved the implementation of cutting-edge digital equipment and software, and converting glass slides of patient samples into digital images. The conversion enables pathologists and laboratory technologists to view, store, retrieve, and share medical images more universally, without waiting for glass slides to be retrieved and delivered. This has significantly improved patient care because pathologists can now discuss cases with clinicians and surgeons in real time.
