In April 2021, Eng. João Pimentel, Co-CEO of IMP Diagnostics, was a guest speaker at the webinar “Mapping Your Path to Successful Digital Pathology Deployment.” The online event was promoted by Leica Biosystems as part of the Digital Pathology Series and brought together experts to discuss how laboratories can implement Digital Pathology.
Digital Pathology: an essential step in modernizing diagnostics
In his talk, João Pimentel stressed the importance of investing in Digital Pathology. This technological advance is changing the way diagnostic services work. Once slides are digitized, samples are analyzed using high-resolution digital images. These images can be viewed, shared, and archived more easily and securely.
What are the benefits of digitizing laboratory processes?
The webinar presented the main benefits of this transformation:
- Greater accuracy: digital sample analysis supports a more rigorous diagnosis.
- Optimized workflows: digitization makes laboratory processes faster and more efficient.
- Remote collaboration: specialists in different geographic locations can review and discuss the same cases without moving physical samples.
Sharing knowledge to advance diagnostics
IMP Diagnostics’ participation in this webinar series reflects the company’s commitment to innovation. It also shows its willingness to share its experience with the scientific and clinical community. Digital Pathology is a growing field, and discussing how best to implement it is essential so that more laboratories can benefit from this technology.
