The need for images in pathology laboratories has significantly increased over the past few years, be it in histopathology, cytology, hematology, clinical microbiology, or other applications. They serve many purposes on top of the documentation of the diagnosis. Yet, the view through the eyepieces and the image are different in nature, the one is an optical image, the other a digital image. Looking at a few aspects of this process that are related cameras will help you make sure you can obtain the images with all the detail and color fidelity you need.

If we consider the role of microscopy in pathologists’ daily routines, we often think of the diagnosis. While microscopes indeed play a crucial role at this stage of the pathology lab workflow, they are used even earlier: Lab technicians or pathologists use microscopes to check on staining. This article looks at H&E staining and the role of microscopy in the lab workflow more closely.

If you have thought of digital cytopathology as characterized by the digitization of glass slides, this webinar with Dr. Alessandro Caputo from the University Hospital of Salerno, Italy will broaden your horizons. You can deepen your understanding of what is possible if digital technology is employed along the entire laboratory workflow.

Abnormalities in tissues and fluids - that’s what pathologists are looking for when they examine specimens under the microscope. What they see and deduce from their findings is highly influential, as pathologists’ diagnoses play a major role in treatment decisions. Dr. Penelope Zorzi has a background in immunology, pathology, and genomics and is Product Workflow Manager Health and Clinical Microscopy at Leica Microsystems. She knows about the responsibility pathologists bear and speaks about the work of doctors, scientists, and laboratory technicians in pathology

The main performance features of a microscope which are critical for rapid, ergonomic, and precise microscopic analysis of pathology specimens are described in this article. Microscopic analysis of patient specimens in pathology is a key step for providing diagnoses. As pathologist can spend long hours at the microscope analyzing specimens, achieving accurate and efficient diagnoses requires an optimal microscope setup.
