TY - JOUR T1 - Rocky road to digital diagnostics: implementation issues and exhilarating experiences JF - Journal of Clinical Pathology JO - J Clin Pathol SP - 415 LP - 420 DO - 10.1136/jclinpath-2020-206715 VL - 74 IS - 7 AU - Nikolaos Stathonikos AU - Tri Q Nguyen AU - Paul J van Diest Y1 - 2021/07/01 UR - http://jcp.bmj.com/content/74/7/415.abstract N2 - Since 2007, we have gradually been building up infrastructure for digital pathology, starting with a whole slide scanner park to build up a digital archive to streamline doing multidisciplinary meetings, student teaching and research, culminating in a full digital diagnostic workflow where we are currently integrating artificial intelligence algorithms. In this paper, we highlight the different steps in this process towards digital diagnostics, which was at times a rocky road with definitely issues in implementation, but eventually an exciting new way to practice pathology in a more modern and efficient way where patient safety has clearly gone up.
