A Growing Digital Pathology Curriculum
At the 2023 and 24 Executive War Colleges, we stayed on the leading edge, and by popular demand brought you information, case studies and data from first adopter organizations in digital pathology. Over the past decade, there has been continuous improvement in the digital technologies used in digital scanning and digital image analysis. Yet despite these improvements, many pathology group practices have been slow to make the commitment to acquire and deploy a full digital pathology system in their labs. However, with early adopter pathology laboratories reporting favorable results from both the use of digital pathology workflow and the use of the specific Artificial Intelligence image analysis algorithms, we at EWC continue to up our game when it comes to helping you take digital pathology from evaluation and implementation to actual full-blown practice.

Suddenly, “Oversight of LDTs: How Labs Will Need to Comply, Steps to Take Now, […]
Showing Labs The Money; Get Maximum Reimbursement
Every time I read an article in the clinical laboratory world about reimbursement, I immediately flash on a famous scene in a famous 1990s rom com, where a character named Rod Tidwell is on the phone coaxing and cajoling a guy named Jerry Maguire to scream out a certain catch phrase that has since entered […]
