SPRINGERBRIEFS IN COMPUTER SCIENCE DIGITAL PA...

Digital pathology has experienced exponential growth  in terms of its technology and
applications  since its inception just over a decade ago. Though it has yet to be approved for
primary diagnostics  its values as a teaching tool  facilitator of second opinions and quality
assurance reviews and research are becoming  if not already  undeniable. It also offers the
hope of providing pathology consultant and educational services to under-served areas 
including regions of the world that could not possibly sustain this level of services
otherwise. And this is just the beginning  as its adoption by the also rapidly-emerging fields
of medical systems biology and 3D tissue imaging indicate. This work describes how digital
pathology not only has the potential to dramatically impact medical education and the delivery
of health care  but also to exert an immensely positive influence worldwide  including in
countries and regions that normally fail to benefit from such technological advances.
