Welcome to the Digital Pathology Association
The mission of the Digital Pathology Association is to facilitate education and awareness of digital pathology applications in healthcare.
Members are encouraged to share best practices and promote the use of the technology among colleagues in order to demonstrate efficiencies, awareness and its ultimate benefits to patient care.
What is Digital Pathology
Digital pathology is a dynamic, image-based environment that enables the acquisition, management and interpretation of pathology information generated from a digitized glass slide.
Digital pathology is rapidly gaining momentum as a proven and essential technology that is helping to reduce laboratory expenses, improve operational efficiency, enhance productivity, and improve treatment decisions and patient care. It is used worldwide in drug development, reference lab, hospital, and academic medical center settings. Applications include education, research, image analysis, archival and retrieval, LIS/LIMS integration, secondary consultations, and virtual slide sharing.
