👋 Let's talk about Digital Pathology!
If you've ever had a tissue sample (like a biopsy) checked for disease, a pathologist examined a glass slide of it under a microscope. Digital pathology is the revolutionary shift from glass and light to high-resolution images and computer screens!
💻 What Exactly is Digital Pathology?
Digital pathology involves turning traditional glass slides into digital files that can be viewed, managed, and analyzed on a computer.
The process is simple:
Scanning: A specialized machine called a Whole Slide Imaging (WSI) scanner takes the glass slide and creates an incredibly high-resolution digital image of the entire tissue section.
