Key Highlights

Digital pathology: Advantages, Limitations and Emerging Perspectives

Experiences from the Universities and Clinics highlight the feasibility of the large-scale implementation of all-digital pathology workflows and the transformative potential of computational pathology and AI.

Experiences from the Cancer Centres demonstrate the benefits of a phased approach to implementing digital pathology.

Recent advances in digital pathology, such as novel slide-free and label-free pathology methods, offer faster and resource-efficient histology results.

Experiences from industry and academic centres suggest that AI applications in pathology can improve patient care by accelerating drug development, increasing diagnostic accuracy, improving patient stratification, and predicting patient responses to therapies.

Synthetic data, generative AI, and auto-ML have the potential to drive innovation by overcoming data access barriers and fostering collaboration.

Post-adoption challenges and concerns regarding the impact of digital pathology on culture, teamwork, and communication remain.
