About
Runjan Chetty is a leading figure in gastrointestinal and pancreatic pathology, with a career defined by pioneering advances in digital pathology and diagnostic precision. He is best known for his groundbreaking work on robotic microscopy and virtual slide telepathology, most notably demonstrated in his highly cited 2009 study from the University Health Network, which garnered over 200 combined citations. This research established the feasibility and accuracy of remote frozen section diagnosis, fundamentally reshaping how pathology services can be delivered across distances and improving access to expert consultation. Beyond telepathology, Chetty has made seminal contributions to the classification and understanding of colorectal, pancreatic, and endocrine tumors, authoring numerous influential texts and diagnostic guidelines. His work has been recognized with prestigious awards, including the Gold Medal from the Indian Society of Gastroenterology, reflecting his global impact. With a career spanning decades and hundreds of publications, Chetty remains a vital mentor and innovator, bridging the gap between traditional histopathology and cutting-edge digital technologies.
