Point-of-Use QA in Digital Pathology Slides
نویسندگان
چکیده
In digital histopathology traditionally prepared and stained slides are scanned in a dedicated scanner to produce extremely high resolution images.The resultant image fidelity is affected bymany variables including the staining processes, scanner design/setup, and ultimately the image display. Little or no routine quality control is applied at any of these stages and as a result widely varying images can be produced for the same sample.

متن کاملDiagnosis of major cancer resection specimens with virtual slides: impact of a novel digital pathology workstation.
Digital pathology promises a number of benefits in efficiency in surgical pathology, yet the longer time required to review a virtual slide than a glass slide currently represents a significant barrier to the routine use of digital pathology. We aimed to create a novel workstation that enables pathologists to view a case as quickly as on the conventional microscope. The Leeds Virtual Microscope...
