Digital pathology is a process of acquiring, viewing, managing, sharing, and interpreting pathology slides in a digital ecosystem. The digital image is generated when glass slides are captured with a scanning device, the captured image then can be viewed on a computer screen or mobile device. Image generated can be stored either on the system, local network, or the cloud. This eliminates the need to manually store and ship the slides.  With the support of digital pathology solutions , pathologists can now collaborate with other pathologists across the globe. They can consult, collaborate and share in real-time.  Benefits of Digital Pathology: It aims at assisting pathologists to provide better patient care;    No need for extra equipment apart from a digital scanner Prevents delay in critical patient care Pathologists can simultaneously communicate with others using Telepathology, while analyzing slides Remote consultation ...
