Variation within and between digital pathology and light microscopy for the diagnosis of histopathology slides: blinded crossover comparison study by David RJ Snead, Ayesha S Azam, Jenny Thirlwall, Peter Kimani, Louise Hiller, Adam Bickers, Clinton Boyd, David Boyle, David Clark, Ian Ellis, Kishore Gopalakrishnan, Mohammad Ilyas, Paul Kelly, Maurice Loughrey, Desley Neil, Emad Rakha, Ian SD Roberts, Shatrughan Sah, Maria Soares, YeeWah Tsang, Manuel Salto-Tellez, Helen Higgins, Donna Howe, Abigail Takyi, Yan Chen, Agnieszka Ignatowicz, Jason Madan, Henry Nwankwo, George Partridge, Janet Dunn

“…Digital pathology is a process of converting microscope slides to computer image files. Digital pathology allows some advantages to pathologists, namely: to move cases easily between pathologists, for example to get a case seen by the next available pathologist who can report it, to view the cases at any location, for example work from home or report cases for a distant laboratory with a shortage of pathologists, to confer easily with multiple colleagues on difficult cases, and to rapidly check diagnoses made on previous samples the patient may have had. …”
