Giving them access to digital collaboration platforms ensures that the best and most appropriate pathologists are looking at the specimen. Thus, we need specialists to easily see the slides relevant to them. This needs a central laboratory information management system (LIS) that can cope with sharing the data as part of an inter-laboratory network of IT systems.Ĭurrently, there is a shortage of pathologists, which is compounded by the fact that not every pathologist specialises in every tissue. The ability to share slides and communicate within a specialist or group of pathologists, in real-time, greatly reduces turnaround times.

Interoperability and trans-laboratory collaborations.

This creates an international 24-hour work routine. Having digital workflow capabilities can significantly reduce turnaround times on pathology workload if, for instance, a specialist is located elsewhere globally from the laboratory. This provides the ability to access your system from anywhere around the globe across different time zones, being able to review digital images and write a report based on the analysis of these images.
