Static And Dynamic Imaging In Pathology

摘要

Advances in video microscopy, computer sciences and robotic light microscopy have paved the way for the development of static and dynamic electronic imaging in pathology. As in other image oriented medical specialties including radiology, these developments herald the development of the fully digital laboratory in the future. Static and dynomic imaging systems have been constructed, installed and successfully tested in hospitals. Static and dynomic imaging in pathology represent ways to address the problem of maldistributim of specialty pathology services and to provide primary pathology diagnostic services in rural areas. These technologies are also valuable for consultation and for educational programs. Because of the high information density in pathology specimens as compared with radiograms, image storage and image transport in pathology represent special challenges to video and communications engineers.
