Challenges During the Implementation of a Digital Pathology Workflow - Becoming Fully Digital at IPATIMUP

Catarina Eloy MD, PhD

There is evidence that in-silico reporting represents an advantage in the diagnostic process. To obtain diagnostic level WSI for primary observation is a challenge that must be accepted by all pathology laboratories.

In this presentation we explore how to reach the fully digitized status using the example of the Pathology Laboratory of IPATIMUP, Porto, Portugal.
